I totally disagree with you.  It works wonderful, you get table of
contents, inter- as well as intra-document links, freely defined
anchors and links, and you get interactivity inside a TTY manual
page with patched grotty.  The effort is minimal, and only command
options (for non-headers) could improve it.
Not immature, not ill-designed, nonsense!
But i can remove you from the list if you want to.
