AMEN! Well said. Correct documentation is not an optional luxury, it is 
fundamental part of the new feature.

A few points:
o As z/OS grows in complexity, the needed documentation and its cost
  grows proportionally, perhaps quadratically.
o It becomes increasingly unlikely that a typical user has the needed
  background information.
o The cost of providing adequate documentation should be factored
  into the business case for new features, not used as an excuse for
  not providing it.
