You must be reading a different manual than what they're talking about.

https://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/2000/MA2085/en_US/mac...

You'll note that at the beginning of the three-page battery section, it says that you must have already removed every other part from the other 159 pages. The battery section is basically just "whatever's left doesn't come apart, so replace all that for a new battery". I think saying it takes a 162-page manual is fair.

There are ~25 pages about how to change keyboard keys before even touching the bottom case.

Most of the pages are very much slide-like, extremely well done and don’t have the density one would expect from a typical electronic device manual. The statement is not fair at all.
