I disagree (partly). I remember as newbie I _always_ used \relative. Once it comes to more complex situations (polyphonic music) it becomes more, well, more complex. Once copy/paste is wished, or worse, applying music-functions to extracts of relative-music it has serious draw-backs or at least is inconvenient. Nowadays I still use \relative for simple things and I see no reason not to recommend so. For more involved work abolute-mode is preferable, imho.
