Getting Started information missing...

On the getting started page here: https://www.matterhackers.com/articles/mattercontr...
Under section 9 it lists the following:
- Filament > Temperature: Separated into first layer/other layers, this setting will dependant on your material. If you find that your filament has trouble sticking to the bed, try setting the temperature a few degrees hotter for the first layer than the rest of the layers.
Emphasis added for the settings I can't find. There is nothing in the Filament > Temperature section for first layer. Was this removed for some reason and never corrected in the getting started guide? If it was removed, why? I was hoping to use the first layer settings.

Sorry about that. The article is outdated. That setting was removed some time ago because we found that there was very little use in setting a different temperature for the first layer. If you still need to do that, though, you can change your slicing engine from MatterSlice to Slic3r. It has that option.

So having separate temps for the first layer doesn't make any difference in prints? I was just curious about using it because others I know use Simplify3d and it allows them to select different temps for different layers. Most use a higher temp for the firs t3 layers then drop it down and start the fan. I assumed there was a good reason for it.
