While the fact that in list displays, option 4 (delete or end job) and option 5 (display, work with, &c.) are right next to each other on your keyboard, can occasionally lead to a sudden feeling of tightness in the chest, they at least usually have confirmation screens that can stop you from destroying things.

Likewise, shutting down a system usually doesn't do any permanent damage. And with most delete commands, you know what you're deleting.

Not so with DLTUSRPRF OWNOBJOPT(*DLT). You might think you're only deleting some miscellaneous QSYS objects the user created, but remember, the IFS doesn't respect OWNER(*GRPPRF) on a user profile, even if it's set and the user HAS a group profile, and depending on the application, a user who has no reason or ability to create so much as a single QSYS object could own THOUSANDS of programmatically-created IFS objects that nobody is likely to notice until it's too late to recover them.
