Ulterior motives?

I was just reading the directions on a tube of toothpaste (really I do have other things to read but directions on mundane items are funny to me) and it said:

For best results squeeze tube in middle then flatten from bottom.

How funny is that? I have heard couples get into the most ridiculous fights over where to squeeze the toothpaste. I think maybe someone wanted to prove that they are right and you should squeeze the middle so they put it in writing.
