Honestly reminds me of posters here complaining that an article/headline is click bait, when it's really just an attempt to simplify something for more people.

Honestly reminds me of posters here complaining that an article/headline is click bait, when it's really just an attempt to simplify something for more people. People assume it's malicious, when it's really doing what you friend seems to be good at - reducing an explanation in a way that might not be as accurate, but get the general point across more easily for people.

When learning, I don't appreciate reading a description of something, thinking about it, generating my own conclusions, then finally reading forward to find I had been misled not by my own fault but by faulty explanations. As an example, a book I read on SQL was narrated from the point of view of an employee at a startup and stated that indexes on views were efficient, but then eventually backtracked on that statement, saying that this is only true for materialized views.
