    I propose to fix this with a reorganization.  /etc should be the data
    directory for files used by Lisp and programs in the suite.  The files
    meant exclusively for human browsing - the jokes, the cookie recipe,
    the Manifesto, the hacking guides - should move to a new directory
    designated for such content.

The idea makes sense to me, in principle.
I can also pick some old files to delete or move outside Emacs.
