One has only to look at the questions on a site such as
StackOverflow, not especially those about Emacs, but generally
(and apparently about PHP in particular), to see that some users
expect instant familiarity with a product without any effort - not
even a cursory look at the doc or a Google search. The SO site
leaders are continually lamenting the poor quality of (some)
questions and askers. Some people really do expect a royal road
to learning. Encouraging them in that does not help them or
anyone else.
