Yeah, understanding should not be a prerequisite :) Not everybody wants to be a farmer/butcher/frycook/doctor/mechanic ...

I think a more interesting idea is code instead of tutorials

Create module-starter in terms of dzil, except simpler/smarter than both, a magic burger wrapper

make solid stubby stubs for users, with solid default, fill the pod/versioninfo from smart comments (Pod::Autopod? something perlobj-smarter ? Recap: The Future of Perl 5 ?) So all new users have to do is 

$ newbeedzil Snacks::Ahoy
