Well, I'd first need to use info to use emacs to use info,
you get the point :p

A manual system should be simple enough that a newbie can
start to use it without knowing anything about emacs. Hell,
even less is a hard thing to use on man pages for a newcomer,
let alone emacs or vi.

Once you are proficient with emacs, then info vs. man is
probably a non-issue for you anyway, so I don't get your
point there.
