Please remember that what interacts with the data may not be a human "user", but a script. The user behind the script must find the the organization sufficiently comprehensible that the script can be constructed to penetrate it without human help. This is exactly why GUI so commonly poisons scripting, because GUI is generally designed to facilitate human interaction, not avoid it.
