I think the Documentation Requirements in the RM shouldn't be there at
all.  You can't legislate good documentation.  If you try, you get the
sort of documentation you're complaining about -- totally useless
information, intended purely to satisfy the letter of the law.

Note that the validation process makes no attempt to verify that
Documentation Requirements are met properly.  If the vendor had written,
"Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall" as the answer to that question, they would
still be just as validated.
