I personally dislike the style of tutorial that has lots of 'we' and 'lets' in it.
I suppose part of that comes from the tendency for such tutorials to provide revelations instead of motivators. For example, in this tutorial there is 'look at this C++ code because I said to' and then two sentences later it explains that the C++ code ends up in a garbage value.
But this is probably very much a point of style and I'm sure lots of people think my view is stupid.
I tend to be very collectively focused, so I do tend to write this way. Thanks for the feedback; the style may not be appropriate for an official tutorial.

I'm going to have to think about this, that's very interesting. I would like to say that my revelations provide motivation, but that may be wishful thinking...
Do you think there's a way to demonstrate these concepts in a way without 'the reveal'? It seems to me that comparison will always feel a bit reveal-y, as demonstrating some kind of difference is inherent in comparison.
