Universities rarely release software into the public domain anyway. Most of the time, it's under some BSDish license. It's a bit of a nitpick, but there is a significant legal difference.
Maybe the fact that we call files 'files' limits our thought process. Files imply a business with hanging folders. In some ways, it's just aesthetic, but the fact that our filesystems are built around this notion can make abstracting into a different interface difficult. Maybe we should reorganize from the bottom up...
