and if this is a well thought decision i wanted to point out again

why do you not read the arguments?

* a new user does not know anything about the menu
* a new user fall into a boot problem after update
* the user has only one computer
* the user possibly has no LiveCD
* the user can not go to any documentation because his machine refuses to boot
* you can not educate the user after lost this game

so what is the glory of hide well thought features from users?
