SEO is largely about understanding how people think and phrase their questions. If you're ever going to write something and want other people to read it, they typically have to find it first.

Even if the person has already found your project or your docs, following SEO principles will make them easier to navigate.

Here I'm referring to the "stuff people type into search boxes" aspect of SEO, not the "dirty tricks" aspect.
