So you're implying the documentation is not good enough because you choose not to read it.

To be fair, "See Also" is the 3rd block down in the docs, pretty well "above the fold". And if your tube of paint required an operating system to run, shipped with dozens of example tubes and documentation describing how best to apply the paint, explaining what media are most suitable for the paint, then it seems pretty likely you would crack open the docs at some point.
