I think this scenario is actually a lot more common among those of us (you and me) who *do* have an idea of what multi adaptation actually does. :) I think what you are describing is a lack of understanding of the detailed mechanism. Perhaps it's different for you, but I haven't heard stories of beginners being confused by this. I think you only tend to run into this if you do something quite advanced with the ZCA, i.e. build frameworky things yourself. That said, better documentation would again be useful.
