I also like that overview of things, whether it's about languages or a computer program. I hate the need-to-know approach that gets applied sometimes. It's not that I overestimate myself, or want to get to the good bits first, I just like to know is all. Second, learning a language will always have to cover the same subjects, but you're right in saying that a different language course can give you an entirely different point of view. Sometimes even, it's just the way they call things or how the layout is done. You need to feel comfortable with what you're looking at or it'll never work. That was it. Good luck.
