The point is exactly that people do not want something like a man page, so they make their own thing that's not like a man page, and the suggestion "go contribute to manpages instead" isn't a good one, because it would mean making bad man pages (or not fixing the issue people have). If aspects are useful for the man pages (e.g. to make better examples sections), they can still be pulled out and added there as well.
