I beg to differ and say that requesting better documentation is fair, and it goes without saying that maintainers don't need to fulfill these requests, as I don't think that these requests are driven by an inexplicable sense of en

Which is good, isn't it? At least the energy crisis has been averted for the first month of the autumn season in Europe and the outlook looks promising going into the second month esp for households in light of rising costs and soaring

This wasn't a value judgement BTW. I acknowledged the valid and productive use cases for this project but pointed out that it wasn't revolutionary in creativity or innovation at this stage. For me, it looks like Pinterest on stero

This is still rehashing the same concepts/ideas in circulation not producing novel ones nor innovating in this space. Maybe it will prove beneficial for rapid prototyping during the ideation stage for mass-market products/services

I would have preferred and opted for "to teach" instead, or probably the more emphatic yet more problematic "to teach the truth" but the sentence structure seems sound to me grammatically speaking.
