Show me the docs changes you think should be installed, and let's take
it from there.  Until then, this kind of hand-waving and vague
accusations are not useful.

In general, I suggest to be less "combative" in this and similar
discussions.  It doesn't help arriving to a consensus.  But I digress.

The code is there, so AFAIU any "agreements" boil down to
understanding what it does and what it does not.  In which case,
perhaps bringing the author on board of this discussion would be
helpful?
