First, as someone else pointed out, it certainly _can_ teach you
something, if you want...

Second, my point is, with so many truly _useful_ and _interesting_
things to learn, why waste brain cells on something as basically useless
and uninteresting (and baroque) as modmap syntax?

Anyway that's my opinion but, of course, YMMV :).
