So far you have given no evidence that this is actually a bug in OS X -
just your opinion.

Since you haven't shown us the bug report in question, then we only have
your word that this is considered to be a feature. You have given zero
evidence of this assertion.

> nobody designs something to have a bug.

You still have not proven your assertions that (a) this is actually a
bug, (b) it's a bug in OS X, or (c) that Apple considers this supposed
bug in OS X to be a feature.

It's perfectly clear for anyone reading this to see that you have
provided no evidence of your assertions. Saying it isn't so changes
nothing. Continuing to insist that you are right without giving a shred
of evidence to back up your claims is very typical behavior for you, and
is pretty lame.
