It is at least slightly amusing that the ambiguous title led me to expect that the article would be about the writing of manuals, rather than a discussion of manuals explaining how to write.

Likewise. I also found the title ambiguous, and the style of the piece itself an exemplar of much it rails against. Verbose, excessivly so, and somewhat over-endeared with itself.
