Explanation:
Ou tout simplement: \"Il vaut mieux...\" Useful\" signifie ici soit \"pour obtenir de meilleurs résultats\", soit \"pour faciliter la tâche\". Ce qu\'\"utile\" (en français) ne rend pas, alors que \"pratique\" est sans doute acceptable mais peut-être un peu vague. Il faut se méfier des \"faux amis\" en traduction.
