A great Haskeller led to this document being made available. [1]
She didn't question whether Haskellers needed something like P6, she just implemented it and pushed Haskell to greater heights. I think that is a worthwhile point.
But I don't understand why you've introduced your point about what you perceive as the level of need for this document.
Given a non-zero number of lang X to lang Y documents, one or more of them will be the most likely needed, one or more the least likely. And given such a scenario, it'll likely seem one way to some folk and another to others. So?

[1] The first P6 compiler prototype was written by Audrey Tang. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audrey_Tang https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audrey_Tang The P6 project follows several principles she established such as being optimized for fun, and a "forgiveness > permission" policy for most contributions. So someone wrote a nice doc and it's been made available.
