    I would not necessarily get rid of 4, considering you know, you just said : "everyone has their own idea about what they’re good for and how useful they are (with some students considering them very important, others less so)". A lot of my classes that had a text book often had professors not using it at all to the point where there A: was no reading that corresponded with the lecture and B: the professor disagreed with the text in the first place. If you mean for lectures to be supplementary, then you are certainly serving your students by explicitly stating that.
