Why Your Company's Documentation Sucks
This view is too much simplified. If docs where tree vs graph we would probably have at least some orgs doing it right, while there are literarily almost zero.
Some of the important aspects of good documentation is:
1. Narrative style. You can't do ad hoc whatever wherever and call it a day. Most people don't have it and many are quite illiterate IMO. You need to practice this and most engineers don't like that. Hell, even most seniors don't like writing tickets IME which take almost the same time as putting garbage on Slack. I created templates on both GH and GL and almost nobody uses them even tho you don't need to think about anything but follow few rules.
2. Its quite hard to know what level of detail to put in documentation. You need a lot of experience for this - put to much, and it gets quickly outdated, put too little, and it doesn't convey much. Good documentation exists on multiple levels - as bunch of markup files "on the spot", as formal hi and low level documentation and also those are usually affecting different target groups so you actually need to design docs.
3. Documentation is a service. It has source code, build procedure, automatic link checking, export to bunch of format, crosslinks, variables, macros, configuration for different environments, abbreviations, definitions. Its quite hard to get it right. After years of struggle on different projects I finally created my own stuff [1] that I use on all projects, for docs spanning 50-500 pages. I maintain that for years now, constantly (so yeah, its a job).
