They’re not hiding it to avoid pissing off Steve - they “hide” it to make sure that idiot lazy programmers will put all commands in the menu bar at the top where they can be found with a single mouse click instead of burying the command you need in a cascade of right-click contextual menus (in place of the menu bar).
