This advice seems excellent. I find myself running into this type of thing all the time when I introduce someone to something -- anything -- that's new to them and that I have a lot of experience with, whether it's technology or a board game or other. It's such a distracting downer to lead with the warts and edge cases, but it also sucks to leave them off, and I end up feeling like I'm on the defensive and apologizing for whatever I'm explaining when they run into each issue themselves.
