I'll make a try at answering the issues you raise, but the best way of handling missing documentation is to submit PR's which update the manpages or the Handbook with something better.

It certainly seems as if you brought a lot of pre-conceived ideas to the desk, which may have been good in some other context, but simply are not the same ideas that *BSD has its roots in.
The docs are a complete and highly distilled overview of the entire OS; I don't think that it was intended as a simple "how to" type affair. I'm not saying that you didn't read them, perhaps in near entirety, but from this end it *sounds* as if you expected automagic config wizards and eye-candy help menus from an OS that simply has a different philosophy.
