As has been proven here, and I already understand that point you made.  
I like the kinds of advertising that says things like "nothing cleans  
better than Our Brand!". That's a bold (pardon the pun) claim, but  
does leave you the option of saying that no matter how many other  
brands do clean better than yours, using "nothing at al" would also  
clean better.

Of course, the advert isn't going to change now, not after being a big  
success, but for the mental exercise of it, "Learn How to Program in 1  
Day" might have been better. It's still pretty bold, and yet you can  
be sure everyone will come away understanding how you program things,  
which is different to implying that programming would have been  
mastered.
