I had some similar doubts for writing tutorials or filling missing gaps of docstrings, which I believe is one of the biggest parts of sympy documentations. For example, we have high level documentation ideas in https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoD-2020-Ideas.
But I'm unsure if the authors who writes their own tutorials or books about programming languages are actually technical writers, or programmers themselves. So what kind of professional setting we should use if we want to write the tutorials.
