I get really tired of "Conceptual" books and "Conceptual" exams
that pay only lip service to actual concepts and instead rely
heavily on rote regurgitation. I object to using "conceptual"
as a euphemism for "superficial" i.e. "not requiring much if
any deep thinking". Forsooth, I consider the concepts and the
principles to be the /most/ thoughtful, deep, and sophisticated
part of any subject.
