I don't disagree at all. But there are people who just want to play the game by the rules. There are people who won't cheat for moral reasons. There are people who lack competence to cheat. There are people who are risk averse. Ch

It's quite linear if you're using the manual / C-h prefix. More like a spiral if you're like me and keep reaching for external packages to solve problems you're not sure you have. Either way it's really worth i
