    The purpose of the tutorial, I would claim, is not to give beginner's
    the absolute minimal amount of knowledge required to use emacs (with
    today's more menu- and mousified emacs, that's probably very little
    knowledge indeed), but to put them on the road to being a proficient
    user of emacs -- and part of that is coming to grips with the gestalt of
    emacs keybindings.

That is correct.
