The amount of time and skill it takes to write excellent and accessible documentation is just not reasonable for most developers, unless you have dedicated technical writers or it's a personal project without true deadlines.

So what? It may arguably be not a developer's fault, but it is everyone's problem, given the growing dystopian alternatives to an accessible distributed software ecosystem. A problem can be acknowledged without admitting blame. Happy cake day btw.
