That does make sense. I've played around with using ln -s to create my own symlinks. The odd thing is that these are all being created as shortcuts vs this other method. Now that I'm in the "I'm just curious" mode - Does anyone know why the two different methods are used?

One is method is "old" and one is "new". Setup uses the "old" method. See:

and look for '(no)winsymlinks'. You too can use the "old" method if you like. ;-)
