I type "primitives" in the Master Index and get section 2.9.1, which does not
have a list of all the primitives.  Yes, of course I found it sooner or later. 
But that's not a good index.

All I can say is that, when someone asks me about Mathematica, I'll say it is
hard to use for many reasons, and one of them is the poor documentation.
