No need for apologies! There is a lot to digest for newbies.

I don't recommend @nosent or @asis because they are much harder to use than
@file, @clean and @auto. Leo's automagic reloading of @clean files is what
you want if you can't tolerate Leo's sentinels. If you *can* tolerate Leo's
sentinels, then @file is bullet-proof.

I know from first-hand experience that getting @clean nodes to be as one
wants can take significant work when Leo's importers are up to snuff. I've
recently beefed up the C (C++) and typescript importers because importing
to @clean wasn't as easy as I would have wanted.
