It's not a black and white distinction, I agree.
Also, I said/meant stakeholders not end-users. Ours definitely do write bugs, look at docs and generate db reports etc.
The main distinction is that things on that list have a high cost-to-benefit ratio to goals 1 & 2, where history maintenance does not. The cost is high and utilization isn't. Additionally it can't be used to communicate with anyone but developers.
