I might be one of these people. I've worked with enough underdocumented code/systems, I don't expect, look for, or provide documentation.(Exception: I provide documentation where there's a clear and stable boundary/interface another team will use)

I had this with the OpenStack API. It's so hilariously underdocumented that I've reverse-engineered it by poking at a Devstack and checking the HTTP requests in mitmproxy. After some time, even when I had to work with a new part of the API, I didn't even bother to check for documentation because just poking around was faster (and more reliable: one never knows how close the documentation is to the real deal).
