True, but UAC isn't taking away the choice. It's confirming it. Over and 
over and over and over...

It also doesn't take into account that once users find a sequence of 
clicks to get past the dialog box, it becomes second nature to click 
through them anyway, just adding extra clicks to do what they wanted and 
once again negating added "Security". But the secondary security 
measures forcing me to google around to find obscure settings and 
alterations to get something set just right to work with XYZ is very 
effective at completing foiling any attempt at making those procedures 
rote memory or having any actual productivity.
