It makes sense. Many reasons I write the documents conflict with how it will be used.
I often write a ton of bloat in documentation to seem impressive or comprehensive. I put in my performance review once that I contributed over half the total pages. Nobody checked that I added value. They checked that I added pages.
It isn't meant to be useful as I am not a meaningful shareholder, so I don't care if the user's time is well spent reading it. I work for my boss, not the user.
So both sides using LLMs makes sense, as their incentives are different.
It exactly matches the meme where people use LLMs to expand some bullet points to a full document, and then other people use LLMs to convert a full document to some bullet points.
I think it's impossible to tell who is telling any kind of truth online, or who is just "vibe posting"
