Finder (actually, Spotlight) considers these "System" files...
*Sigh.*
I do have System files in the menu; I eyeballed it, said to myself, "naw, I'm looking in my home directory," and never gave it another thought. Did you already know those to be System files (and if so, how?), or did you hypothesize that that was the case (and if so, whence came your intuition?)?
