After you’ve transfered all your data on/off, why cant you simply take out the stick? where’s the harm?

I think I can put this in simple terms.
Imagine a binder with many pages. The first page is the table of contents. Any time you need to add or remove a page from the binder, the table of contents needs to be adjusted. Except no page can be altered except when taken out of the binder.
So if you slam the binder closed and take it away while a page isn’t inside, that page will be missing. And worse, if you do this while the table of contents is out, you can destroy the record of everything in the binder. A computer *has* to look at a table of contents to find files. Some fancy recovery programs are made to basically flip through the binder trying to recognize information, but it may not be successful.
So the “Click to Eject” option is you asking the computer? “Hey, are you done with this?” At which point it will confirm all the pages are inside, close the binder, and give it to you.
