I fully agree with you. No one would question documenting (or advertising) any particular feature - indeed, the quality
ofdocumentation is a feature in itself. I'm reminded of this 2006 quote from Joss Whedon [1]:
Q: So, why do you write these strong female characters?
A: Because you’re still asking me that question.
The Postgres community is also a great "feature", maybe the question we should be asking is - "why isn't it documented
yet?”?I don’t see a CoC as an end in itself, it’s merely an artefact of a community that is as proud of it’s workings
asit’s output.
