Thanks for taking the time out to write a detailed response with constructive criticism.

While OP has the exact "walk-through" I was looking for it is lacking in parts.

I think entry/beginner level tutorials should contain the content you suggested to keep in mind that some of us have only started our programming/development careers.

TLDR: Your insight is appreciated - Interested in me hiring you for a few hours as a PHP tutor?
