No. I assume that if a person reads the man page, and does not understand
it, he will then ask questions about the part he does not understand.
Until he has at least attempted the available information, his questions
are more than likely going to be meaningless.
Perhaps you don't see a difference there. I most certainly do, especially
in these days where most people think they're above doing anything for
themselves.
