Do you think ignoring this will make it go away? .....Nah, didn't think so.

I honestly disagree that honing guides are intended/work well with microbevels only. Honing guides don't much care whether you're working on the entire bevel (-to-be) or not; and honing guides differ so much from each other, I don't see how you can make this claim. Perhaps you've found them easier to use for microbevels?
