One would have to be PF stupid or retarded to forget the

Well, then a LOT of Hasselblad owners are PF stupid.
When I was doing repairs I used to unjam Hasselblads on a regular
basis, mostly for local pros. One woman jammed hers so often that I
first showed her how to unjam it herself with a long screwdriver, and
when that didn't cure her I talked her into switching her studio over
to Bronica. She was happy as a lark with the Bronica stuff because
it never jammed.
Hasselblad is the only camera in common use that serious users must
know how to unjam. When I wrote the Pro Guide:Hasselblad System for
the folks in Goteborg some years back we felt that we had to include
instructions on unjamming the camera.
To give the devil his due, on the SL66 you have to remember to cock
the camera before changing film magazines or you run into trouble.
