There is someone in this thread reacting badly to suggestions, and
itʼs not Eli.

People have offered you advice on how to improve your
understanding by reading the extensive and incredibly high quality
documentation that comes with Emacs. You donʼt have to follow that
advice, but continually expecting others to expend their time because
of your failure to attempt to educate yourself is not a winning
strategy.
