I do not know if feel bad or laugh (sorry). But computers and programs are just tools. They do whatever you order them to do.

Yes, this case also remind me the rm command on Unix/Linux. And some entry level DBAs complaining when they delete complete Oracle directories after using the command.

As an advice, please read the manuals! I always do, at least I try for important software commands like delete.
