I do see your issue with the turtle.drop() command, and how it drops a whole stack instead of a single item. I personally would say this is BETTER than dropping a single item, but thats just my opinion.

There's a workaround. Get Pfaeff's Allocator. It ejects only a single item at a time, from a stack.

CC is not a "user" friendly mod, it's never been planned to be. It's a CODERS mod

Granted, but Lua is easily the most simplistic language I've ever come across. If Dan200 had decided to use Lisp as the scripting language, then we might have something to genuinely complain about. :D/>

That's no longer necessary. The new version of CC now supports dropping different quantities of blocks:
turtle.drop( quantity )
