I do not care what hair you are splitting to say not working "properly" is
somehow not a "weakness", but I will note you changed the topic away from the
Finder and any flaws it has to your need to insult.

You don't talk tech -- you just attack. I will give you another chance: what
do you think is not working properly with the Finder? 

I can point to areas where I see room for improvement -- and have even spoken
to you about them. But can you? I bet not -- I bet you just just try to hide
the fact you have no clue what you are talking about behind yet more insults.
Please prove me wrong. Seriously... it would make this conversation much
better.

I noted most were not aware of this in Classic Mac. You have now shown you
were one who did not understand this worked pretty much universally there. And
not on OS X / macOS. 

Thanks for backing my point. Here, so you can understand better what I am
talking about:

https://youtu.be/IouS4iDvsOQ

If you can show ANY app with preferences that does not do this in Classic Mac
I would love to see it. But I bet you won't. It was the standard in Classic
Mac... it was rare for ANY app to not respect this. I do not know of a single
one which did not (though of course I did not try every single app I used!)

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot
use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow
superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
