Why would any sane developer want to use this system to "document" their project? Written docs have worked well for a million years and there's no need to change them.
You can even include them in your version control system and allow others to suggest changes
And you can include separate ones right there in the root folder where the script lives. README.md renders out beautifully on GitHub.
