Beleive me, I write as much as I do to make things as easy as possible.
Sometimes my answers aren't popular, but I've done a far amount of chip
burning, and talked to hundreds if not a thousand guys off list about
tuning.   I also get alot of feedback.  I'll be the first also to admit when
I'm wrong, thou it might take me making a real fool out of myself in the
mean time.
   But, ya gotta just get your feet wet, and start, theory will just get you
so far.   After doing a couple dozen, and seeing what just small changes do,
you'll get (over) confident, enough to make some minor screw ups, and then
once you relearn things a couple times then you can get somewhere.  Then if
you can tinker with a few other cars with what you've learned things will
make even more sense.
  It's like running the BLM limits real high and low, and letting ecm learn
it's way in, once you get close to having a nice been, leave the timing just
right and subtract a little fuel in a couple of spots, and add toooo much in
a few others, and go for a test drive.  It will amaze you with how different
it feels.
  That and the stall speed of the converter is enough to make a grown man
cry at times (with a light car, higher then stock stall).   BUT, once you
run thru it a couple times, it's like $hit, ain't nothing, but the first
couple serious attempts at a good launching chip for a Hot rod, you'll go
why those dumb ba$tards a GMECM ain't got a clue, and then well maybe, and
then a Owww, that's what they meant.
