Why on Earth do cellphones emit a loud chime when they are being set to silent mode?
Why on Earth don't all phones have a timed silent mode? I'm forever going silent for a show, and forgetting to put sound on again until after I've missed calls.
Why on Earth are monitors for backup cameras mounted on the dash, instead of in the headliner above the rear window, so drivers can take everything in at once? I know neither turning around nor viewing the dash alone is good enough, so I'm constantly twisting back and forth, as conditions that can only be seen in one or the other could change in an instant.
Why on Earth do almost all single lever faucets have the lever on the right? I hold my cup or pan in my right hand, and I have to do a crossover to operate the faucet. The lever should be on the left (or on top) for right-handed people!
Why on Earth does Windows Explorer have making a new folder a 2-step procedure: Right click on a folder, click on New, then click on Folder. Since Folder is the only entry under New, why not replace New with just "New Folder?"
Why on Earth do all point and shoot cameras turn on with their lenses at their widest angle setting? If 50mm is "normal" for 35mm cameras. shouldn't cameras open to the equivalent, or at least give that option?
