Windows does not have a strict hierarchy
    Actually Windows is far more organized and sane in this regard, because it puts stuff in one place, not by type, but from where they come from.

    Besides configs, which are the only exception to this rule, a package should install into one directory so that removing it is as simple as removing that directory. Installing also just copying it over (unless it needs to alter system configs). All of its files should be there. Not scattered over a million bits and pieces.

    Thankfully, Linux started to catch up to this with /opt style packages... Finally something fucking sane.
