I share the sentiment that the release notes *seem* too big, but the
subsequent discussion shows that it's not clear why that's really a
problem.  Exactly what problem are we trying to fix?


​We'd get a lines-of-code decrease which would translate into a improvement in the make process time; most noticeable for someone doing a doc-only build, multiple times, to see how a doc change looks.  No time percentage has been provided yet but the goal seems reasonable in theory.
