Uniform and consistent experiences
Authored by: SeanAhern on Feb 29, '08 09:12:16AM

I guess I agree with you. But you can argue the other way as well. The poster was used to having the "safety" of the normal Finder delete operation of moving things to the Trash. Not having "safety" in the UNIX equivalent was frustrating to him. So he makes the system consistent by adding extra safety to 'rm'. It creates a more uniform experience for the poster.
