In fairness, if one were to come to more, pg, or less with no prior knowledge of the conventions, the madness of some of the character choices would be just as grating.
Ironically, this sort of stuff -- the basic conventions like qhjkl0^$G + CRFFBSSPC keyboard navigation and :/? prompt modes -- is exactly what one initially learns from guides, tutorials, other people in IRC, and whatnot, long before coming to reference doco. The _Introduction to Linux_ book at TLDP covers the bare essentials of these conventions, q, b, and SPC, in the "quickstart" chapter 2.
