For what it's worth, I agree... My plan is never ever from here to
eternity to use a view camera (although I have an 8x10 sitting in my
living room, I think of it as a still life). But this is a low-key way for
me and others like me to pick up good info (or bad info too I suppose),
casually, without having to worry about wasting film, or not doing it
right. In my experience teaching alt processes, the trickiest problem is
often the negative. The processes themselves are mostly mix part A with
part B, coat, & expose.
