That reminds me of an old mathematician joke about how one goes about
boiling a pot of water.
Since we probably agree that the current default is more ergonomic (use
the function at point, unless called with the prefix), maybe suggest

Like: "if the name of the function you're interested in is under point,
press M-.. Otherwise, press C-u M-. and type the function's name."
