The key word is "probably." I have a watch that I can't freakin' set without looking at the manual. That's a device that's too complicated for its own good.
Take that graphing calculator... if you were to use all those "extremely useful" features regularly, you wouldn't need to refer to the manual all the time. See Ludd's Third Law....
BTW these are "laws" in the sense of "Murphy's Law."
It's a joke, son.
