It perhaps is because I view the cover letter more as a part of conversation, not a presentation. And when you walk up to somebody and start a conversation, you do not declare section headers ;-) Saying "I want to be able to do these things in the future, and here is to prepare for that future" at the beginning nevertheless is a good thing.

I agree with the overall direction. Thanks for starting this topic.
