The more (documentation), the merrier. The issues of 'fragmenting' the
knowledgebases is benign now that good search engines exist. Good
documentation will be cited the most and therefore get the attention it

Best components/distributions stay standing and other inherit (reuse) DNA
from the stronger contender.
