Lol. that's the point.  I didn't know about it until about a few months after I 
started googling how to do stuff, but the good thing is it hides stuff I really 
do't want to see.  There are even option cmd and option  shift things you can 
do, none of which I can remember at the moment. but they are  there. 

Think of easter eggs in games and that can be a good analogy, or at least 
that's how i think of them.

Take care and be blessed.
