They did the same thing regarding using Dolby B, the best thing ever 
to happen to cassette recording. Of course Dolby can make problems 
when recorders aren't carefully aligned, but if Cornell had 
promulgated useful information about it, like "be sure to have your 
cassette machine aligned and calibrated by a specialist, and use only 
the tape stock it's calibrated for," they would have fulfilled the 
educational role that they have assumed.

Personally, I'm so happy MD recording has made the cassette alignment 
nightmares go away.
