Never seen this diagram before. Hmmm.

I do take their "primary" on occasion (such as narrowings at islands)
but the advice is too simplistic.

The term "primary" makes it sound as though it is the position to aim
for by routine, not for a position that should rarely (*) need to be
used for more than 3-5 seconds. I would swap their "primary" and
"secondary" terms.

(*) if ever - without going out and deliberaty observing, I can't think
of anything off hand.
