I agree, however, it is not and should not be presented as such (Canon). It is just as reputable as any resource book used today. It parallels the Bible and other documents and has reliable manuscripts. As with any presented "fact" it is always good to back it up by one two other historical resource texts.
I agree, I use anything I can find as references and learning. But, realistically speaking I think canonical status will allow people to see it as fitting for resource, psychologically.
But, I hear you.
