> Remember: There’s a reason we gave the %localappdata%\lxss\ folder ‘hidden’ & ‘system’ attributes

So basically "there is a gaping hole in the middle of the street but it's ok, I've put a 'road ends here' sign in front of it so now it's the drivers' fault if something happens"

In this case this results in a lot of files not being editable by windows programs, plain and simple - such as the entirety of /etc and /home. That's a pretty bad situation.
