To some people who think "Delete" is just a "Move to Trash bin": Suppose that you have 1500+ items in your trash bin. You pressed DEL without noticing which file it was. Objectively speaking, do you still think it is a reasonable behavior? You'll understand how irritating this is if you commit and feel the pain. (As I did just now on a Lucid 32bit Desktop.) If one wants to "Move" to the "Trash bin", he will simply drag and drop it to the waste bin.
I'm not saying they are "short-sighted", but it would be really nice to consider other people's view and think what could be the possible outcomes if not fixed. And who simply says "because it is Not Windows" does not seem to be logical answer to me - just emotional. As you could see from the above example, confirmation dialogue should be quite "practical" for many people, especially for people who want to move to the Linux world from Windows. If it makes Ubuntu better, why not accept and fix it? People who don't like this functionality could simply turn it off.
