This is interesting as a blog article from 2003 "Why doesn't Windows have an 'expert mode'?"[0] was posted here a couple weeks ago.

I suppose the flaw is that people find ways to mess with stuff regardless, even if just following the first google result's instructions. At least if they use advanced settings people's misfortune won't be because they ran a strange program, but I doubt this will stop them from doing so anyway.
