I was very surprised to find in the App list that all the apps I thought I had deleted were in fact still there. I find that confusing.
Think of the launcher as the desktop on your PC. No real program information is held there, just shortcuts to folders and such. In that mindset, it's not very confusing at all.

I'm sure someone will reply that their far superior, rooted custom ROM device takes out that step, though.
