This is not the issue I was talking about.  I was talking about the
fact that you are actively promoting a variant of Emacs that behaves
differently from what is described in the Emacs manual.  I think this
is wrong, because it makes harder for newbies to learn Emacs, and
makes it harder for us veterans to help those newbies when they ask
questions.
