It is not that complicated and there are plenty of tools to generate man pages from other formats. Besides, this is about the dev not knowing what a man page even is.

Stuff like this is why I'm really glad I was a hard ass about learning "the right way," and refused to let myself use a full IDE and instead rely on a terminal setup. Crazy how many people (with tons of experience) can be missing basic knowledge about how *nix environments run
