I agree with you for the most part. But the docs DO have examples, and any reader who sees the lack of a suitable one should file an issue or contribute a suitable change. I got my start here as a noob p6 user (coming from years of p5 use) contributing to the docs. And I, too, found many examples too obtuse for a noob, and have changed some of them. As experienced as Todd seems to be in p5, he should be able to improve the docs one way or the other (but get a good book in the meantime; Andrew Shitov's "Perl 6 at a Glance" is short and sweet for a first book, Laurent's "Think Perl 6: How to Think Like a Computer Scientist" for a deeper look).
