Indeed. But that's exsactly what the sutra is supposed to teach you.
Read it here or in a sutra. Pick one.
I believe this is called Expedient Means in buddhist terms. The Buddha observes the situation and preaches what he thinks is best according to the current situation. He doesn't fiddle with a book or sheets of paper to find the appropriate sutra to preach, because, he has attained what is beyond verbal explanations and so he preaches with his own words.
Maestro, one has to start somewhere.
