Mary, We don't really know why they added the confirmation. It may very well be that they received a ton of feedback from people asking to have a confirmation. This is not accessibility related so who knows.

I will go there and leave my opinion. It wasn't that way in the previous OS, and I never had a problem, and I never heard of others I know having a problem. So I think they tried to fix something that did not need fixing. At least, we should be able to turn it off. Anyway, thanks for the link.
