cliffsnotes I suppose it's foolish to expect good advice from CliffsNotes, a series that isn't willing to supply the appropriate apostrophe in its own name - there was a real Cliff, founder Cliff Hillegass (1918-2001) - but on stranded...
As far as I can see, the only effect of this advice is to mess with students' minds by inducing Preposition Anxiety.
The CliffsNotes volumes are supposed to function as guides to "the basics" (that's what Hillegass's "Note to the Reader", inside the front cover of each book, says).
