I get that but my point is that sometimes you don't want this and if a person is performing an action without knowing or forgetting there is a trigger they run the risk of triggering (pun intended) other processes they had no intention of kicking off such as 10,000 emails were sent because they inserted that many records. Of course things like that are rare but once is enough. Yes, triggers can be useful but in my experience they are trouble when others don't realize they are there.
