Muir seems to have been a minimalist and just didn't think there was any reason 
why a driver shouldn't be expected to understand his car well enough to manage 
his own choke. Personally, I think his attitude toward the choke is rather odd, 
since he didn't seem to have the same negative attitude toward FI.

I guess it was just one of his quirks. At any rate, I recommend the Muir book 
not for its mechanical advice, but for its karma.
