I was thinking this might have been a treatise on prompt engineering, or something like Rational Rose.
I was actually pleasantly disappointed. I am glad to see documentation treated as a "first class" engineering Discipline. I would say the same goes to creative authors, such as graphic designers, or 3D modelers.
I'm fairly big on good documentation[0], myself, and feel its absence, whenever I look at most codebases, these days.

Definitely agree. I am feeling the decline in Apple's documentation (I'm an old-time Apple app developer, and remember Inside Macintosh). It's gotten absolutely awful, these days. I'm just starting on a SwiftUI app (I think I may have finally found a good application for it), and, boy howdy, is that documentation ... less than ideal.
Fortunately, someone else thinks similarly, and did something about it[1]. I hate to rely on these types of things, because they often lose sync with the subject, but it is totally necessary.
