> I’m not trading anything off that I’m aware of. Really? Really???? You're not, say... having to manage ACLs, and having to run a system that can enforce ACLs? Because both of those are tradeoffs. They might be "completely sane and reasonable" tradeoffs! But they are still tradeoffs. Also - in a more blunt way: Simply not being able to see other peoples files was considered a pretty big negative in some computing crowds when it was first enforced. That's a huge tradeoff: You're sacrificing visibility for privacy. I think that turned out to be the correct tradeoff in most places - but to be clear - you absolutely are losing a feature to gain a feature.
