If I remove the basket, what happens?
Windows will not allow you to do this, because when you do, the basket will remove itself, and if you clean the basket, an endless cycle will begin, which will lead to overload and overheating the processor, resulting in a mini-black hole. This mini-black hole will create a corridor into the past where a portion of your computer will arrive just before you remove the basket. He will instantly block the order to remove the basket, and hop! Nothing will happen.

It happens so quickly and so often that 99.99% of people never know what happened.
