Lo, and it is indeed even inscribed unto the Emacs tutorial that
said behavior is recommendation-worthy.

That's actually the first time I really used Ctrl-z, was when learning
Emacs ... I knew about the command but felt like it was "bad form" to
suspend processes.  When I saw it recommended in yon Emacs tutorial,
I asked about it and found that it's not like putting a video tape on
"pause" ... 

(this was years ago, I was much younger and even more naive, really)
