Doesn't sound right, if that's what you get then I don't blame you for not using it.
I've never found this to be the case though and I like using it, it's not a 'style' that comes and goes for me.
I'd recommend people look into it, I'm sure there's tuts online or the book that Rick mentioned is a great start.
