This is in line with the philosophy espoused in Donald Norman's book, "The Design of Everyday Things". Mr. Norman phrases it as, "a product ought to afford being used correctly", that is, one cannot help but use it without being confused or reaching a stopping point, simply due to the nature of its design. His prototypical counter-example is the lovingly-named "Norman door", which is any "PUSH" door having a handle, or any "PULL" door having a push-plate. "PUSH" and "PULL" signs are essentially FAQs that make up for the "poor design" of a door that does not afford being used correctly.
