For licencing, reuse and collaborative editing reasons - sharing the
work to make keeping things up-to-date easier, maybe even asking
developers to document their new features, or changes to features,
themselves, being the ones who know most about them.

And then allowing others to edit that info, to make it accessible to the
average user, in case the language is too technical / not written by a
native speaker.

Also for allowing offline usage or even shipping with Inkscape.
I might be a little old-fashioned in that respect, though, in that I
like to be able to use a manual offline, too...

But as I said - it's a more theoretical question, I don't expect it to
happen. Maybe it's possible to instead support Tav somehow, then?

- Yep, I agree, tutorials are a great resource - I love your site and
visit it frequently :) Thank you very much for all the work you invest
into this!

Kind Regards,
