So, by making max-width: 800px we save documentation reader's time from
making browser smaller (browsers have a lot of tabs, and making browser
smaller can harm other tabs usability).

I used firebug to change styles, yes, it's possible with user-styles or a
lot of other technologies. I hope you won't ask users "if you want to get
better documentation, please go and install that user style" :)
