would it be advocated that I start out with [SSH] to learn limit to avoid learning a weak/tight style?

I would say not necessarily as long as you are aware of the distinction. In WLLH for example, Lee Jones states in some places that he is advocating some plays to minimize beginner loses in thin edge situations rather than maximize profits.

If you do start out with SSH, make sure you understand when it is wise to be aggressive so you don't push in negative EV situations. That usually takes some time for the neophyte to grasp and can be quite costly to make errors with. You can find more on this exact topic discussed in the Books and Software Forum.
