I'm actually finding that the time taken to inform people how to use
common sense is an increasing contributor anti-pattern, not just to
documentation.

I'm not offering an opinion about what-is-to-be-done, I'm saying that
needed to do anything about behaviour which is in direct contravention
of standard open source behaviour is really draining on our community as
a whole.
