When I first used argentium, I wasn't aware that it was any different to sterling, so imagine my shock when I used binding wire and it all crumbled. All the soldering cheats that you've used for years are gone if you're using argentium, no tweaking with the tweezers, no popping earwires onto the work as the solder flows (for me) but all it needs to master it is a little planning and forethought.
