User-friendly Mac OS

Many people tell that Mac OS is the mos user friendly operating system. Here extraction from a user manual of an external USB hard drive for Mac Users:

How to remove the drive - for Mac OS Users:

1. If you have files located on your drive open in any applications, close them.
2. Locate the icon for your drive on the desktop, and drag it to the trash.

I am not a Mac user, but I never ever would have done that for removing the drive! Dragging something to the trash for me means "Delete it - delete the contents"!

What if I accidently would have dragged selected files from the drive to the trash and not the drive itself. Do you call this user-friendly?
