This seems like trolling, but this line of thought seems very extreme. Not sure where the perceived obsession comes from. People communicate in different ways and assuming that there should be a single refined dump of information is not taking into the account the fact that the people reading the documentation come from completely different backgrounds and technical levels of understanding.

"Submit a pull request before.." The unofficial documentation and related tutorials are exactly that, unofficial, they are not meant a replacements by any stretch of the imagination for the official documentation. Rather, these forks exist to speak to many different audiences and in some cases, speaking from personal experience, attempting to document and teach others is a very useful tool for personal edification regardless if it is a distraction from the "blessed" documentation.
