> This is such an ignorantly engineering centric perspective.

I gather this is for technical documentation. For people who either are engineers or who work closely with engineers.

> There is value in the larger organization being able to consume documentation and commenting on it and contributing to it.

Agreed! One benefit of "docs as code" as this person calls it is that you can pile tools and metadata on top of it. People have created excellent tools to comment on and make suggestions to Git pull requests, for instance.

> And most documentation systems are far easier adopted by people other than engineers.

That really will depend. And no matter how good the software is, you're likely going to be locked into one corporate service provider. If you instead treat documentation like you do code, you'll have access to a wide variety of wholly interoperable UI alternatives with no threat of lock-in.
