The ordinary home user shouldn't even notice it is enabled, which has been the case for some time now. In the early days it did most definitely get in the way - just as early distros had permission problems that needed ironing out. Very occasionally you hit stuff in a home user environment - usually non Fedora packages. It's only when you are doing custom web and server stuff it gets noticable and you have to read the two pages or so of documentation on labelling cgi that its non-trivial and its rare it gets hard but some weird cases are fun (eg printing files from a cgi script). > with learning how to use it.

Is that the "I talk on my mobile phone while driving but its ok as I've not killed anyone yet" ? argument.
