"Appears" vs. "will appear"

[Brierley, Sean]

Use appears in other sentences and perhaps you will have the desire to
append, "as if by magic" or "out of nowhere."

On a slight tangent, I would *love* to hear an argument for displays
over appears that doesn't involve knocking appears for being "magical".
I've never heard a user of my documentation make that claim, only
another Tech Writer. It would be interesting to track down where the
"magical appears" claim first surfaced.
