Nomod is a safe way to go though as there is no way to develop the bad habits DT/HR can cause.
Personally I'm not telling anyone to completely stay away from mods, just that nomod should be the majority of the plays one is doing.

And I feel that for "beginners" there's no sense in playing HR/DT as DTing normals is actually completely useless due to forced DS and using HR on AR6 OD5 maps is kind of worthless too(while AR7+HR is plain frustrating death).
And regarding OP he IS a rather inexperienced player. Not a bloody newb but he is far from reading AR10 as also mentioned in his post and from my personal experience there is no necessity to practice a specific AR in order to learn it as the perception of AR improves regardless what you're playing.
Another thing I'm aware of when telling people to stay away from DT/HR is that I know from my own experience that I don't have the skillbase that is necessary to play HR/DT at a decent level(and not like 3*+DT):
My streamability is rather bad and I'm just at the point where I can sort of deathstream very low bpm like here https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/3474495 *brag*
Also my reading is not as solid as it could be even though I think it's good for my rank due to me playing EZ on a somewhat regular basis.
Of course I could get into DT cause 3* generally don't have streams I have to worry about but this would cause me to run into point 2)b) of your post.
I just recently learned to play AR10 without my hits being collected on the right side of my hiterrorbar but I think i could actually get into it now without ruining myself. That's still not far off from my original estimate of "play nomod till 3k pp".
Also this
I've been around here for some time now and I've seen many new players asking for help with their problems and looked on what caused the problems could be, spectated them, discussed peripherals/settings with them etc.
Maybe you can't even remember anymore how it was to be to fail 3.5* star maps out of mere lack of skill cause you're such OsuGods but I certainly do.
/edit: Also I'm never telling people how to play unless they ask me to. OP asked, why wouldn't I give my opinion?

Then why are you trying to argue back [...] when we clearly have more experienceis one of the most stupid things you can say in any discussion. You're biased.
