I prefer the UNIX way of doing things personally.  If I type "do this
thing I want you to do" I don't want endless "Are you sure" prompts. 
Computers are tools, they should act like tools and not nannies.

When I was working on a bookshelf I drilled holes in the wrong place on
several boards and had to re-make the boards.  This took 3 more days to
sand, stain, and varnish the wood.  Of course I bitched at myself for
an hour or so, but the drill press never asked me "are you sure?" or
had an undo function.

I'd rather have the Slim guys working on new real features and fixing
bugs than making every last bit of the system idiot proof.  If I do an
idiotic thing, it's my fault, I should pay attention and be less of an
idiot.
