Genuinely what is the added value of using this sort of phrasing in documentation? At best it doesn't communicate anything about usage, and at worst it makes the user feel incompetent if they can't figure it out.
A screenshot of some documentation saying "Solving this for arrays is straightforward -". The word "straightforward" is selected to highlight it.

Can't believe I'm saying this but...
Meme of a guy shaking hands with another guy, whose head has been replaced by an icon showing two bluejays. There's another guy in the corner with a cross drawn over him and his head is the Git icon. The caption says "Friendship ended with Git, now JJ is my best friend"

To the left, there’s a broken electric “candle” which is just an LED on the inside. To the right there is a credit card terminal with instructions to tap your card and a candle will light up. These are candles in a church to light for symbolising prayer and remembrance.

Same vibe as this. Prompt an LLM for something that exists but place it in a context that doesn’t make sense for it, and it’s just gonna confidently tell you it does make sense and totally exists.

The company behind my index fund sent me an email that a new bank account had been connected. I hadn't done that. So that was stressful.
