... except that the FAQ explicitly suggest using Configure, when you
want to learn from it, how to customize Emacs: 

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_mono/efaq.html#Using-Customize

Funnily, when you search the FAQ how to do certain common
configurations, the suggestions always say that you should modify your
.emacs.... Kind of contradiciting.
