Well as a user of Amazon you have a vested interest in the documentation being correct. It is what other members of your team and organization will be referring to.

Having it on GitHub will also add additional context around changes in the form of PRs, Issues and the commit history.

As a Walmart customer it's in my best interest that the aisles are clean. But I will doubt the legality to ask customers to clean the aisles so they don't need to pay for a cleaning service. Actually using volunteers to replace employees is kind of illegal.

If there was an aisle full of cardboard boxes blocking you from buying a product would you leave the store or take 5 seconds to move the boxes?

What if 90% of Walmart aisles were consistently blocked by aisle-blocking cardboard boxes and Walmart decides the solution is to use social engineering to encourage more customers more often to take 5 seconds to move the boxes?

Then you should shop elsewhere and accept the cost.
