I think people just like to make this kind of comment to sound deliberately contrarian. And smarter than they really are, also. Can you elaborate on what is "out of date" or "not all that relevant" about the books? What a lot of people miss about these books is the joy and wonder Feynman brings to the subject. There are a dime a dozen more appropriate books to study for in preparation for university exams for example. And while they contain fascinating material, they tend to be quite dry & drab in their presentation. Feynman's infectious love of physics and exploration really shines in these volumes and for me that gives them value in a different way to most textbooks. There is more to life than passing university exams and if someone can make a subject like this both accessible & enjoyable that is quite a remarkable achievement in my opinion
