This list is for people to share their experiences and to help out others who might happen to need a hand up along the way. So in brief your original opinion is correct.

Hi Victor; I must have gotten the wrong idea of what the list was for. I thought it was to share our experiences. At the time I gave my opinion I did not know the question was for an academic exercise. You are the only person I have ever heard of that thought there was a situation where drag & drop was the only solution.

For example, one has various games for the blind installed on their computer, yet Windows feels the need to place a games menu in the start menu. Naturally, I would like to place all of my games, blind and sighted alike, into the same menu to cut down on clutter. I can guarantee you you can't do this by copying and pasting, you literally have to drag and drop the icons into the menu, otherwise you're just twisting your thumbs in the air. Don't knock something you don't use as being unnecessary, as others may require that same function for something you never thought of using it for.
