I find that there is a tendency to make too many things hidden. I just assume I'll have to show hidden items by default in all contexts now.

As I said in a different comment here, I have 94 files and folders in my home, 84 of which are hidden, approximately zero of which actually needed to be hidden.

If anything, it's the reason this is such a common issue, the dot lets everyone shit files out all over the place but oh it's hidden so no big deal.
