There are a few issues in your logic:
1. OP_RETURN is limited, but a private key for a brainwallet is limited as well. Both involve hashing the data anyway.
2. OP_RETURN doesn't cause outputs to enter the UTXO, since they're not spendable by definition.
3. OP_RETURN could be made simpler to use by adding functionality to a wallet program, or by providing the user with a raw txn to sign using their own client.
