Since OS X they swapped the trash icon for an eject icon when you start dragging a removable disk. So they hint at it in some way.
Incidentally, this is why the trash icon is on the right side of the dock, and cannot be removed. You need it to eject disks due to a decision to account for the lack of a second mouse button.
The apple way to eject a disk was to drag the disk icon into the trash.
What the fuck
