Yes, but products where this goal has already been achieved to a
great extent are poor examples of the advantages that good docs
may bring to the product or why their manufacturer should "give a
toss about documentation."
Unless, of course, you're presenting them as examples of cases
where documentation needs are minimal and making the point
that the products being discussed don't qualify for that description. :)
