Hmm... The two are pretty similar anyways. From what I can tell, the only difference is that Template:Modular_infobox has two groups (instead of one) and is "disabled" in the main namespace (as you mentioned). To be honest, I don't really understand what the message in the "modular" version is trying to say; and I know how to create/use infoboxes/templates. I am thinking that behavior is just going to confuse new users. From my experience, there are two most common behaviors for new users. In the first case, basic requests typically get referred to help pages and more complicated requests get detailed help right away. In the second, it either works or the user gets really confused. As such, I don't really see much benefit to making this change for the first scenario. As for the second scenario, I think it might actually do more harm then good. I mean, what is more confusing than seeing a template that looks good, copying it, and then finding out that it doesn't work? There seem to already be enough "I copied this from that wiki why doesn't it work on mine" threads popping up here on CC.
 * 1) Ask questions right away without doing any looking around on their own.
 * 2) Attempt to just copy-and-paste.
