This is stupid. You can always assign an icon to one application from another and trick someone into running it.

Exactly the thing that gets said before the shit hits the fan in the end. You ought to recognise a problem by now.

This is not low-level security at all, this is by design.

This isn't a design thing and if that is what you see it as, then you don't realise what has happened. Look again.
