Perhaps you might want to explain to me the return on investment of the Orca documentation then? Zero users, zero return on investment. I feel annoyed if you talk in absolutes like that, because I know that there are lots of situations where creating documentation is a waste of effort. And I have also been bitten by lack of documentation. And I have even been in a situation where both happened at the same time, where a lot of effort was put in creating the wrong kind of documentation. Oh, and I even wrote a bit of documentation myself. I have been thought many things at university, and there were many more things I had to learn in industry. And from open source projects, which have other things to teach. Investing means making decisions. Fully documented non-working code has no value. Working code that no-one can use neither. Your current communication is manipulative: you try to put yourself in a dominant position by using absolutes, saying you feel sorry for me, and bragging about your experience. That annoys me. If you want to convince me, use arguments. Stephan https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonviolent_Communication
