Standard Additions is installed by the OS in
System/Library/ScriptingAdditions/. Don't touch anything in System/ - just
leave it be. The reason why Find didn't find it is that "Standard Additions"
still has a space between the two words - it's just the "ScriptingAdditions"
containing folder(s) which have lost the space since the transition to OS X.
