It seems to me that if you need training classes or training videos to 
effectively use a radio, then that’s a problem — either with the radio’s owner 
(and I mean no disrespect to anyone) or with the radio.  

Elecraft will no doubt release some user tips for certain aspects of operation, 
just like they did for the K3 and other radios.  Many questions can be answered 
on the list, either by field testers, Elecraft, or others that get their hands 
on one before you do, like they always have been.  It isn’t a bad idea to 
collect these in a single location on the Elecraft website for reference, maybe 
organized by topic, provided that user submissions are vetted by Elecraft 
before they become gospel.

Oh, and none of the computers in my house have DVD drives any longer.  My 
grandkids have no clue what a CD/DVD even is. Which is why I’d suggest a web 
reference as a more universal option :-)
