AppleScript isn't referring to a file path there, it's referring to a
process name. The actual file name of "Finder" is "Finder.app",
because it's a folder with an extension of ".app". If you have to
reference its path or file name, you have to include ".app" because
it's part of those.
AppleScript gets to be human because it's not dealing with the file
system.

AppleScript certainly doesn't care about extensions on application
bundles...
Of course that seems to be due to the syntax...
tell application Finder
...
Which is why I am inquiring. There are certainly points in the Mac
OS that are designed to be more human.
