No, it' about user friendliness. These .txt files are developer-level
documentation, while ALUA and NVMe are topic which are at least as
important to users as for developers. Distributions tend to ship the
READMEs under /usr/share/doc, but to be realistic, how many users still
look there for documentation these days?
