Comment:

 Ah.  I did not realize there was a change. I notice that the wording on
 the page does not reflect the new default:

 1. The instructions at the top say "By default WordPress uses web URLs
 which have question marks and lots of numbers in them ...", but that no
 longer reflects the new default.  It should say "By default WordPress uses
 web URLs that have the day and name in them ... ".

 2. The first item in the list says "Default" but it is no longer the
 default.  I understand that in some regards "default" = "unaltered", but
 perhaps instead of "Default" it would be clearer to say "Plain".  Plain
 seems to be used to describe basic URLs and indicates that it is not a
 pretty or "aesthetic" URL.



 Thanks
