Are you saying that Sourcegraph's management keeps changing products/documentation/comms strategy every 6 months? (Just not sure how to parse this sentence.)

No, I'm saying that management keeps changing internal documentation/comms strategy, and that without a central index to search, it's impossible to know where things are, or what's even going on.

A tool like Sourcegraph but for finding documentation could be useful, but it doesn't show you the amount of "dead" documentation that's floating out there, or give you a way to browse everything.
