And actually conversely makes it harder to keep updating, because you’ll need 
to document every and all edge-cases, and then need to know when one of those 
edge cases breaks, etc.  

The core concept is documented, and it’s pretty straight-forward.  

I’m sorry, but it’s as if he’s arguing for the sake of arguing.  It’s starting 
to feel very unproductive, and unnecessary.
