Engineers didn't write the manual. We don't GET to write the documentation that goes to the customer, and depending on the team, we never even see it.

Tech writers wrote the manual, reviewed by lawyers and managers, revised, and lawyers and managers get final say. Engineers will be consulted via email, phone, and meetings as to technical data, but we get ZERO say about what is put out for public consumption.

After all, what do we engineers know about talking to people...

Just to be clear, I don't work for Subaru and I didn't sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but I am an engineer. Specifically a systems engineer working in the aerospace avionics field. I speak from that experience.
