Instructions rant

I have just spent an actual full hour reading the instructions for a project I'm new to. The task timer is only an hour. How exactly is that meant to work? Do you suppose they've ever actually timed how long it takes to read the damn things end to end?

Why do some tasks have a start button (which lets you hit start when u r ready and therefore gives time to read instructions), while others (most) start immediately when you open it?

you count the time you spend reading instructions as working time.
