I mean, no one really remembers all the flags. They remember a few common ones, due to using them over and over again.

If you are making a genuine effort to avoid the shell, you won't ever learn these basic flags -- you are holding yourself back. It is like a person complaining about using the stairs -- "On the rare occasion when I _do_ take the stairs, it is excruciating..." -- the problem is not necessarily with the stairs.

I totally agree. My counterpoint is that this tool is the equivalent of portable stair lift. Yes, it may hinder me from developing the ability to walk up the stairs, but I'm fine with that. The only thing that matters is that I get up the stairs.
