That has always been the problem when the instruction books is written
by the products designer/creator, software or otherwise. This is why
many commercial distributors hire outside consultants to write their
instruction manuals.

I was briefly involved in that field as a part time adventure.
Unfortunately, the powers that be all to often considered that
including all possible scenarios would make the manual overly confusing
to the novice user. Plus, as both IBM and Microsoft learned the hard
way, nobody RTFM anyway.
