So let me get this right, you replaced a GENERIC text formatting tool with one that ONLY knows how to manual pages. Now you want to move groff out of the base into pkgsrc leaving a tool that ONLY knows how to format manual page macros whose output is border line stupid. And you are calling this progress?
Even Microsoft gives you Wordpad with the OS.... Leave it in. All of my opinions are my own and do not in ANY way reflect those of the company I work for.
