It tells something to those of us who read it... and who else could it  
tell anything?

Well, to spell out what that "something" is:  When a question like this, 
concerned with one of the simplest, most elementary, most useful, and 
widely used functions in Mathematica, gets raised online (and then has 
to be answered)  _hundreds_ of times, that clearly indicates a "product 
defect" in the design of that function, or its documentation, or both.

Thanks for the disambiguation.  Yes, I second that conclusion.
