+1 to what Rob said.
I guess I don't see what problems is being solved by turning the rule off,
and I also don't see the harm in having more check. It does generate a lot
of warnings, but invoking `npm run lint -- --quiet` gets rid of those.
Also, from my experience, sphinx-based doc builds are notoriously
permissive about bad formatting. Eslint's stricter jsdoc checks would add
an additional safety net.
However, if you're working on this with the docs team, then the result
should be applicable to the entirety of openstack - meaning that once your
work is complete, it may make sense to turn the rule off globally.
