   Also, what it finds is not documentation.  What it finds is

~C-h p' eventually leads to the commentary section of the packages'
source file, which is supposed to be documentation of the package.
For many features, this is the only documentation they have.  So `C-h p'
is an essential complement to the Emacs manual, which has not enough
room to document all features.

Sincerely,

Luc.
