Maybe so, but LOTS of things can't deal with them in a path. Try
this incredibly simple example and you'll see what I mean (it's
weird, but should work on any standard OS X installation). It gets
stuck on the first ".." and ends up revealing /Applications/
TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/ instead:
tell application "Finder"
reveal POSIX file "/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/
MacOS/../../../Preview.app"
end tell
Also note output differences for:
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to get Posix path of (POSIX
file "/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/../../../Preview.app")'
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to get Posix path of (POSIX
file "/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/../../../Preview.app"
as alias)'
In case you wanted to stick with Posix-path strings.
