That is the same mentality that gave us DRM for ebooks.
I don't think he intends to play "tricks". He is simply saying that grandma wouldn't be opening up the software and looking through the settings when she could just open up the OPDS link that her son set up for her on her ereader...

Besides, it is too simple to "secure" your settings page with a password...ie. if I want to prevent grandma's prying eyes I would just put a password lock to get into the server setup page.....if people really thought that would be an issue. I'm certainly not saying anyone SHOULD, just that it is possible.
