I often do that, but I don't read carefully thru the buffer thaht
`describe-function' displays.  If it said something about advice, I
wouldn't even notice, unless I read carefully thru the buffer to look
for such.  And I am in too much of a hurry to make a practice
of always reading that text carefully.

Did someone already say "highlight the advice info" in the help buffer?

Maybe this is a consequence of getting older.

Yes, of course. There is still just as much to do in life and less time left.
