Is having things a newbie "doesn't know about" in the file actually
harmful (especially considering, it's more or less just a text file,
and this funny stuff is at the end)?

Maybe it's actually _good_, in that it might might peak their
curiousity, and make them aware (if often only peripherally) of a
feature they might not have thought about otherwise.
