The same can be said about other networking protocols, which is why we
had options to display them, or not, and let us make the choice about
consequences.

Trying to find a photo from a phone is a pain, they don't have useful
filenames.  You've got to go trawling through them all to find
something.  If you're organised, you might move photos into sensible
folder names as you go along.  And you might decide that it is worth
turning on thumbnails to find the specific photo out of 20 from last
week's birthday party.
