Students are often looking at the wrong place. It's not intuitive that
quadratic, cubic can be found under "lm", because these are often termed
"non-linear" in basic university courses.
Dieter,
unfortunately, you are so right. And that's wrong with those basic
university courses: We need to teach people that trying to make
appropriate transformations to make things linear is the way to go.
Best,
