That's called "the law". If there was no legal requirement to pass testing I suspect there would be a larger proportion of clueless people on the road. The difference of course is that computers do not regularly kill people. Same goes for the televisions, radios, washing machines and lawnmowers that we happily use without training. Successful home appliances (of which a PC is one) need to be user-friendly, intuitive and require minimal maintenance. If you want to pull them apart you're free to do so but the bar to achieve *normal* *safe* operation - as with any consumer device - should be set as low as possible.
