Consider the first-time user experience for a person that just installed
OpenBSD on their own hardware, with no prior Unix experience.

The installer does a great job at holding your hand.
If you paid attention during installation, you can probably figure out
that the username and password that you gave to the installer will let
you get past the "login" prompt. But what next?

Experienced Unix sysadmins, using OpenBSD for their first time, would
probably know what's up once you mention the word "sendbug(1)" - the
rest could be moved to the manpage.
