To teach someone to use something, in my mind, means that that someone should be able to use whatever they were taught.

After 10 minutes, the person unfamiliar with Perforce, will not know how to deal with read-only files. No chance of that happening.

I wish you didn’t ignore the majority of my comment to focus on one tiny part. :(

But yes it does literally include that. Perforce is THE standard tool for gamedevs. It’s not hard.
