I'm glad you get it, but most people don't, including the original people who created Node (no offence intended - it's just not something that was thought through).

Removing it would be a reasonable solution, but I don't see it happening. As bnoordhuis said - file an issue. At least it can be tracked that way. I just don't see it being very easy to fix.
