A large part of why they are called weeds to begin with is because they are faster growers, bigger seed producers etc. allowing them to better compete for the available resources.

Much easier to learn those few plants than to get caught in the trap of weeding out anything you don't recognize.
Too many stories abound of people weeding out entire rows of stuff because they didn't recognize it at the time...
Remember what I said about flowers that look like the stuff that you are removing... Much better to leave stuff until it flowers before yanking...
All too familiar of story for people to destroy rare plants, thinking they are spraying "weeds".
When the plant flowers, identification will be much more accurate.
Post pictures here for a certain identification.
