Oh, I hope I've never really claimed the fine manual was the only
panacea for all ills!  ;-)  I recant if I did!

Of course my inability to find something in the manual isn't necessarily
due to a failing in the manual either.  My self analysis was an attempt
to discover why *I* had a problem finding a particular reference.
Whether my experiences would match those of anyone else is a very
different question, the answer to which is left as an excercise for the
reader!  ;-)
