It happens everywhere, but yes, I notice it a lot in Ubuntu too.

The reason is simple, users want to do stuff. They don't want to be told
why they can't do something and they don't want to read a great long
diatribe about why doing X is insecure and they should do the more
complex Y instead.

Cheers,
