The current build for the documentation doesn’t produce Markdown.

People are going to use LLMs - I have no problem with my volunteer efforts
to improve the documentation to be read and referenced by LLMs so that they
at least have correct content to work from and save me the effort of having
to further correct mistakes or deal with misinformed people. Not that I’m
volunteering to do the work. It LLMs seem like a natural pairing with open
source principles. Our documentation is already known to be an official
source for attribution purposes. Though I’m not totally convinced about it
ability to handle our versioning policies correctly if we rely on
generalized models scraping us.
