That does sound much worse than hiding the pre-built images from users. I hope that documentation is archived. There's probably some benefit in documenting those installation tips elsewhere besides Github comments.

I'm sure it's been scraped to be regurgitated by a whole slew of LLMs.

old documentation doesn't help when the software changes

Yeah, running binaries of varying qualities taken from all sorts of places is a bad idea anyways. Distro packages are generally more consistent or even running "go build" yourself is probably better in this case.
But pulling existing documentation is a whole different matter. One can argue that they don't have an obligation to maintain the docs, though it would effectively make continued use of newer versions untenable. But pulling existing ones is an unnecessary rug pull when it doesn't cost anything to keep it online. It's a big middle finger to open source.
