+The question whether having documentation ready or not is based on
+individual preferences, there is no general consensus about that as
+you pretend when you claim to &quot;speak in general&quot;. At least this is
+what this thread told us. In my understanding the point of this whole
+discussion is to find a way to cater to both sides, (A) having
+documentation ready if you want it but also (B) being able to *easily*
+avoid it if you don't want it. At the moment this issue is not solved
+for (A) AND (B), only for (A).
