If he reads _learn_ the code as stare blankly at the code for fifteen minutes and then ask another question, then I've done the list a disservice. But I don't think it's ridiculous to emphasize that OpenBSD is a rational and well documented system that can be learned gradually by someone who is willing to take the time. Maybe you're right that it won't sink in, though.
