Your disclamer will not hold up

Seriously though, you have a valid point. Too often new guys are bombarded with slightly (and sometimes not so slightly) off topic recommendations based on our own preferences, rather than solid answers to their specific question. It would be far better to answer the question first, then add other things they may want to consider.
