Edge control ... I don't get it.

Can anyone recommend an online tutorial/video on edge control? I've watched several shorts on YouTube and I'm confused. It seems WW boaters lean into a turn for edge control, but when I do this on flat water in my edgy Pyranha, it wants to turn away from the lean. This seems to be a product of boat's curvature and makes perfect sense to me as a boat with a curved keel would want to follow the arc of the keel. But, I keep hearing about how a boat with an edge is important, so how's this design feature supposed to help when it actually does the opposite of what is intended?
