It's not redundant as much as it is a religious issue here. Be ready to
have your manhood questioned for training in a high wing.

Training in a high wing is OK, just like when you were 5 years old,
you used training wheels on your bicycle, or water wings in the wading
pool.

But at some point the boy must grow into the man, and in aviation,
that means graduating to a manly, hairy-chested Low Wing
aircraft...like an Aircoupe, for instance.
