That seems a somewhat jaundiced view. Some authors
take great care to make their code self-documenting.
(I seem to recall my "Cropmarks.tex" [1] was just such).

Perhaps little (I've looked at it); but surely Werner
is not asking for CJKnumb to be special-cased, but rather
that "the ordinary user" (modern-day English for /hoi polloi/ ?)
be always offered the .sty (or <whatever>) file if
no explicit documentation exists.
