I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks so :-)
"Educating" large corporations isn't done over night, so
let's just consider it a lost battle.

*ahem*
PIX != Cisco Router
PIX isn't running IOS. It's running something that looks
a bit like IOS, UI-wise. However, as many Cisco users find
out when they start working with PIXes, it really isn't
the same.
In fact, the PIX was originally developed by a completely
different company (I think it was UK based?), which was
subsequently bought by Cisco. Some time after the buy
(at least I think it was after), they decided that it'd be
good to provide a UI that was consistent with the IOS.
