So assign the job to people who can focus on just that; community volunteers can often do a better job than the core team for an FAQ, because they are more in touch with people new to the language are confused about than core developers with deep knowledge of everything. It will be dynamic and questions/answers will become obsolete, so that has to be handled.

(I was the G++ FAQ maintainer back in the 1990s; yes, I'm old).

This requires having a person who can. We never had one.

Absolutely! The original version was written by the community. After such a heroic effort, they couldn't maintain it. I believe it was a lack of time, not desire, but regardless, that's just how it goes.
