Wouldn't it be more like getting mad at a guidebook which falsely claims that every plant in your garden is a weed, forcing you to second-guess all of its assertions and therefore wasting a lot of your time?

It's like claiming that the weeds are not dangerous in your garden not that the guidebook got them wrong.
