Wouldn't it be less confusing to have two separate documents, one just for 
steppers and one just for servos? If need be, split closed loop steppers into 
their own document.

Stuffing everything into a single manual, especially when each section goes 
back and forth among two or more different types of equipment, can be quite 
confusing. It can also lead to errors and omissions.

In other words, why is the LinuxCNC documentation like a consumer electronics 
manual? It's a digital document, there's no need to save costs by cramming 
everything into one book to print and pack in with an entire product line.
