this is true for most people and most software.

another true principle is garbage in, garbage out. If people don't read 
the docs, they won't know nor understand parallax (unless they have 
exceptional observation skills and have gone throug trial and error), 
their panoramas will look crappy and they will still think the software 
is at fault, not them / their process.

people don't read the docs before using a hammer, and it sort of works 
because it is such a simple task to hit a nail. Then sometimes the nail 
hits into a water pipe or an electricity line.

stitching a panorama properlyis not such a simple task. for those 
looking for the simple task, there are all of those crappy softwares 
delivered on the CDs that come with the cameras and that amount to 
sticking photos into a mosaic with scotch tape - no perspective 
correction, no vignetting correction, no color correction. For the rest 
of us there is hugin, and we can work to make it easier to interact 
with, but we can't work around lack of knowledge of the user.
