With DDR5 RAM prices skyrocketing, some mid-range laptops could soon ship with budget-level specs. TrendForce expects companies like Dell and Lenovo to stock more notebooks with 8GB of memory. These reasonably priced options may no longer handle intense office and gaming tasks.

Its a self fulfilling disaster. The vast majority of developers learn their skills in a company. Companies don't want to pay for documentation. So developers don't learn to properly document.

When I work with a client that doesn't have a constraining standard for their product, they never ever want to pay for documentation.

When I work with a client that has to work with constraining standards, they want the strict minimum that will get them their cert.

Edit : forgot to add my closing point.

Having a good documentation will make coding a lot more efficient and easy and usually decent.
