I was just being facetious... :-)

Still, by your logic, why does Apple leave the "Library" folder at the root 
level visible? As well as the Library folder within the System folder? 

Seems like if they're doing this to "protect" the overzealous users from 
tossing all those critical files they're wont to do, they ought to make 
_everything_ invisible that could possible damage the oh-so-fragile operating 
system. Gotta make sure those nefarious users don't touch or even look at 
anything they're not supposed to, since I'm sure this (users tossing critical 
files that they don't have the slightest idea about) must happen at least 
10,000 times a day and is the leading cause of dented walls and bruised 
foreheads at Apple tech support.

(No reply necessary! Just venting a bit since I wasted a fair bit of time 
trying to get the License file installed, and hopefully someone else won't have 
to go down that path.)

Cheers!
