So literally you’re saying the architect is the only person who can write good documentation.

Also the architect is the only person who did not write a line of code yet understands the tool better than engineers who work, code and solve problems across the entire stack.

That’s not only arrogant. It’s delusional.

He doesn't know how local variables are named, but what's needed for documentation is purpose and nature of the tool, and that's what engineers often don't know, because it doesn't help with bit fiddling. And a coding architect is an architect too.
