Because one usually has to try and understand all about
SUT and other cryptic bits and the fact that a 0 means
programmed etc. In Studio you will simply pick a proper
oscillator type which is clearly spelled out such as
EXTERNAL oscillator or EXTERNAL CRYSTAL oscillator , the
frequency range, start up time etc in a drop down list.

You will still need to understand the difference between
the 2 but it is less likely to confuse one. At least I have
NEVER messed up the fuses in any chip un the past 7 years
or so...perhaps I'm SOOOO GOOOD :-D :-D

Parallel port programmer have not been supported by Studio
for a long time, so one has to get something else as a
programmer interface. There seem to be some good GUIs for
parallel port programmers too but still seem to talk
about SUT bits etc.
