Confirming both, more or less.

Some of that discussion was misunderstandings, some of it was arguing
about semantics, and some of it was arguing about what's the best way to
present a certain information in the API. There are many ways to present
the same information.
We've certainly discussed different project files and information
contained (or missing) in them. Not Makefiles, though.

I can't easily answer that. What's the use for "command that creates a
manual" (even setting aside the fact that not all projects have that)?
Calling it in M-x project-create-manual, a command that only does that
one thing? Not very interesting, IMHO.
