Yeah, the API is basically insane. Not to mention how many "best" practices aren't. For instance, I remember a few years ago the advice was always "Use VBO's, don't use display lists they're deprecated". Ok, but when I benchmarked them against each other display lists were still twice as fast for the geometry I was rendering than very carefully constructed VBO's. Wtf.
