Yeah, I know it's not always intentional, and I understand the need to be able to distinguish between such files. It's just annoying that there isn't a better solution than "all filesystems, forever, must support a problematic use case that serves no good purpose". To be clear, naive solutions would likely be a slippery slope w/ worse side effects. So, on a certain level I feel obliged to apologize for complaining given I can't think of what a solution I'd prefer might look like.
