Mal,
Perhaps the answer to your problem is adequately answered by the
following example. :
I have just acquired an appliance. It is a Sony Stereo FM/AM tuner. It
is an appliance that arrived with an operations manual. I am happy to
accept that having purchased that which is an appliance I have been
given "appliance" operators' instructions.
After all, I am operating an appliance.
However, as is my wont, and requiring a more 'technical' relationship
with my purchase (and the means to provide my own technical support) I
have also acquired via a separate route, the appropriate Sony Service
Manual wherein are the specifications (insofar as Sony have seen fit to
provide) that may be of little significant value to the average
appliance operator but certainly satisfy my technical interests in the
product.
The product was purchased by me, fully aware that only certain
information would be provided as standard but I had established that the
other information was accessible and available.
Methinks that "in finale" the phrase "caveat emptor" is resonant.
