Its just the Linux / Open Source sense of humour that you never see with MS.
My favourite is when you are choosing passwords using, useradd or adduser from
the command line. If your password is four or 5 letters it says, Its 'too

If you try a passoword or 3 letters, it says ' Its WAY too short '
Always made me laugh :-)
