Please don't be unfair.  Your opinions were heard and considered.
They were not rejected because they are irrelevant or for any other
such reason.  We do not have to agree with everything you say,
especially after we explain why the doc string of that particular
function is not the right place to mention inhibit-read-only.  Other
doc strings, which are a better place, do mention it.
