I don't agree with this assessment.
Take a look at O'Reilly books (colophon section).
Until recently they all were converted from format X into groff and
printed. Take a look at books written by W. R. Stevens.
Even the updated editions after his death are done by the new co-authors
in groff.
I think that limiting groff to "documentation, memos, letters, and
manuals" is not right.
