Wow, what a long and viscious thread for such a minor change!

I like the command change since it shows an alternative way, but I
don't think we need an explaination on the different syntax.

Well, we either need the explanation, or we need to use the same syntax in both places, IMO. My justification for this is that it may well leave folks wondering why we use the different syntax and assume it's because it's doing different things in the two cases. I'm happy just moving to the '1..8' syntax and omit the explanation, to be honest. Sahdow has an example using the {file1,file2} syntax, so we end up demonstrating both forms of the file expansion in the book.

Regards,

Matt.
