Maybe they wanted to see the Privacy Policy and thought that they'd 
start with just 'facebook.com' since they didn't know the URL for a 
Privacy Policy off the top of their head?

It would be unreasonable to expect users to memorize a different URL 
in the directory tree just so they could see some Facebook content 
without logging in (and, subsequently, having to log *out*).
