Maybe 'pcase' is seen as a kind of test: if you succeed in using and understanding it without any clear documentation, you are admitted to certain quarters where only wizards can enter. What you see in the manual is mostly the result of desperate efforts of a single individual to have something remotely palatable in our documentation. Consequently, bug reports without patches are unlikely to yield any real results, IME. TIA
