Am I the only one who hates these fake PDFs?

Feels very hostile right? I assume that all these smart XFA forms still have an online legacy dumb equivalent that is far less easy to use (both for the user and the government)
Same with MacOS Preview, which normally handles everything PDF-related
That just shows how dishonest Adobe is being. For example if a form was named "gov-form.xfa" instead of "gov-form.pdf" then my whole expectation would be different as it is obviously not a PDF and so I shouldn't treat it as such.
To be honest it's making my phishing senses go off. Javascript shouldn't be in a PDF/XFA/whatever basically ever, but it's why PDF is a potential malware risk
