I don't blame geeks. In fact, I spend most of the day typing in a terminal
;-)

Both. The basic idea is that clicking an app icon means "I want to use this
app now", without having to care whether  the application has been started
before or not. You may consider that bad design (and you are not the only
one if you do - I remember similar criticism when Apple first introduced the
dock), but it is pretty standard behavior nowadays - both the dock in Mac OS
X and the taskbar in Windows 7 behave just like that.
