Okay, so I don't have a screw loose. Just checking.
I was a bit taken aback to hear that this advice had been given, even though I was annoyed by my own wobbly connection for 20+ years.
And, as so many have pointed out, I feel sure that the advice must have been situational--although I have not been able to determine yet what the situation was.
To further clarify, the students were advised to tune at the bell rather than the middle--although I'm skeptical of how that's going to help notes like D and E.
Another lesson in the dangers of oversimplification when dealing with an audience that ALREADY tends to oversimplify.
