If the problem is in understanding the manual, then my very
strong opinion is that the question should be asked in terms of
the manual.
This does three things:
1) Demonstrates good faith on the part of the enquirer that
they have attempted to read the manual
2) Helps phrase the question in common terms with a minimum of
unstated assumptions
3) Potentially leads to improvements in the manual
It is very good opinion, but people are not programmed robots.
The manual is not written for robots.
