This is someone with decades of real world experience with files and folders, and in their real world experience, there&#39;s only ever three levels of nesting, a manila in a pendaflex in a drawer.</p><p>Even the suggestion that drawers are nested in cabinets is enough to derail understanding.</p><p>Another, that files exist independent of the program that created them. Trying to find a PDF file after using the scanner, and confused that it doesn&#39;t turn up, because they&#39;ve tried to find it via the Open File dialog in Word. &quot;That is how I get to my files.&quot;</p>

<p>to be clear, when a recruiter, manager, or ceo says someone is a &quot;genius programmer&quot; or &quot;10x&quot; or similar</p><p>they mean &quot;someone who works 80 hour weeks and we only pay them for 40&quot; </p><p>every time</p>

I think the metaphors are still useful because they are *some kind of concept* that gets reused. It has a name and its use within the software is helpful because the software, at least, is consistent about its meaning, even if it&#39;s otherwise a pure floating signifier</p>
