Yeah, I know that it makes perfect sense for them to be on a user’s home directory.
I said that because it was a flashback to work, where people were constantly filling the “home” drive with data that should be stored in the work/project directories. Regular emails begging people not to save data to their home directories. But that data should be accessible to others - it’s not personal, like most holodeck programs would be.
Last year, they added a some insane amount of space (dozens of terabytes IIRC) to address space limitations…a few months later, they were down to less than a terabyte free. People just do not program efficiently and do not clean up their messes.

Bridgecrew: SIR!!! The main computer is malfunctioning and its running out of storage space!!! Life support is going offline!!
Barclay: I can fix this. Computer, delete holodeck program “planet of troi”.
Riker: computer, disregard that order!
WHO’S BEEN SAVING HOLODECK PROGRAMS TO THEIR HOME DIRECTORY AGAIN?
You’re supposed to save them to your Home drive because that can be moved around. It’s people who save them to C: that causes problems
