    The Philosophy section has quite a few wonky arguments; I’d skip it altogether.

    Guidelines is pretty succinct and has many rules-of-thumb that almost any software would benefit from. That’s including CLI, GUI, libraries – even hardware if you take a bit of a step back.

      I agree. I wish they moved that to a standalone section so that it could be easily skipable. Reference docs can and should have a rationale, but a lengthy rant is not what leads people to the site.
