I guess you could argue whether it is dumb or not,
although in 1956 (or whenever the choice was made)
the idea of mixed characters in file names was
certainly wacko. In fact, it was probably those
commie pinko liberals at Apple who thought it up.

But there is no way in the world it is a "bug"! :-)

Cheers,

David
