No need to apologize, it's ok, I was wrong also, and yes, the naming is bad, however I'm used to it now..
My mistake, sorry about that. I missed the "N" in there. Stupid naming convention, I really wish Nintendo had come up with a better name, and stop naming everything "new".

Someone correct me if I am wrong but a huge benefit of installing to sysNAND is the ability to switch between CFWs. If you install to emuNAND (say, via Gateway because you want to play the latest Smash update), and then decide you want to use Pasta, you are stuck. However, if you install to sysNAND, you can boot to Pasta for DSiWare, GBA, if you forgot your Gateway card, etc.; and you can then go to the Gateway card when needed and still access all your games with all their saves as well.

That is the one thing I found very frustrating in switching between Gateway emuNAND (which is great) and Pasta; constantly losing access to my progress and not having access to my CIAs installed in sysNAND.
