Of course, "real men don't read manuals" :-)

On the content, I think the second sentence in the new FAQ could be
usefully amended as follows:

"Most users would give up on Tor entirely if a website they want to use
requires JavaScript [and thus fails to render pages correctly because of
the default TBB settings], because they would not know how to allow a
website to use JavaScript (or that enabling JavaScript might make a
website work).
