I've dealt with people who are new to git and the fact that "git checkout X" does one thing or another based on what X is, was confusing for them, even if I could find an explanation for it. If you didn't have the same experience, good for you!
But compare "git switch X" and "git restore X". This makes different things look different, and obvious, which is usually a valuable thing when learning a new tool.
