What has agreeing to do with any of this? It's just facts. Usage 
= you use it. If you don't use it, then you won't have a problem 
with it.

You just want to use the breaks in your car, you don't want to be 
unable to break just because some engineer thought it would be a 
good idea to add a captcha or solve a little puzzle before you 
can break.

That basically what the current implementation does. It forces 
the user to do something they are not used to having to do in any 
of the other 25+ languages they used before.

As I wrote before, it breaks the interface that is already 
established. Of course you can break it, but then you can't also 
be surprised if users complain.
