Labels work great if you use them correctly. But you can mess things
up if you don't know what you are doing. Then again, there are lots
of ways you can mess up your computer if you blindly change
things... The CLI tools do not stop you from shooting yourself in
the foot. The man pages tell you how to use the tool. You are
expected to know what happens if you use the tool.
