Hmm. Well, maybe I'm missing a point here. But what is this forum if not "documentation"?
I can't name another piece of software that has this level of support. If we don't understand something by reading the manual (which has happened to me more than once), we come here, we ask, and someone is usually nice enough to explain in words of no more than two syllables what we need to know (at least if we ask politely). Admittedly, the manual is written in techspeak. But I know from experience how very hard it is to reduce jargon or programming terms into something a layperson understands. You get used to thinking of something in certain terms, and it's very hard to go back and "retranslate" it in your mind.
Agreed...someone needs to write a nontechy newbie user manual. But that someone does NOT need to be the developers, IMHO. I actually had one started, screenshots and all and then I found a link to someone else's version and decided it was better. No, I have no idea where it went, now.
