Why do boeing planes sound like Linux file permissions?

737 is a very unusual file permission. But IIRC it actually works as intended. The group that owns the file can't read it but can write and execute, everyone else can. However I suspect you can probably figure out a way to drop the relevant group?

Few of them make sense, but 787 raises the most questions.
