Which is why it's so easy to get into bad habits starting with that chip.
Once someone does their first few example, all too often they become stuck
with whatever method they used for those.  If they learned in absolute mode
for example, things appear to work and they won't want to bother switching
and don't know enough to appreciate the advantages.  This keeps them using
the old way intended for introduction only even longer, which increases the
comfort level, which perpetuates the old way....

Surely you've seen this phenomena here and on the Microchip forums.
