> This is why manuals are so damn important! Communicating to people 20+, maybe 50+ years in the future,
Nobody making a commercial product at consumer (or general business-friendly) pricing today, cares about 50+ or even 20+ years into the future. You damn well better be selling something new to that customer, not supporting them 20 years in the future for your otherwise obsolete product.
I would say that if this is the justification, then documentation be damned.
