I agree, it's silly but...it happens lol! You get the occasional 
goofballs who leave out the A record and sit there later going "herrr 
why's this not working".

It does look nice to see "domain.com.au" but I guess it's nicer on 
people to throw in the www. just to make sure people are using the 
address for the right place/environment.

Generally people will click on straight away that they need to put the 
address in their browser and not a terminal or something. Not that you'd 
expect to see this mistake from engineers like yourselves (I hope).
