Here's what I believe to be a copy of LPPL version 1.3c to which you refer:
http://www.latex-project.org/lppl/lppl-1-3c.txt

Are you willing to explain on what basis you feel this license prohibits
distribution of a Compiled Work without the accompanying documentation
components?

Under clause 2, distributing part of the Work is considered a Derived
Work. Under clause 6, this is allowed under four requirements.

Clause 6a refers to components of the Work which are direct
replacements. That does not apply to a Derived Work without
documentation, the components are not direct replacements, they are the
original components. Clauses 6b likewise does not apply, there are no
modifications to individual components, simply the omission of other
components (the documentation). Clause 6c does not apply. Clause 6d is
met by having the doc debs available in the same repositories.
