yes, fully agree.
Also if your business model is to sell to five customers who will each buy ten million units then it's far more cost effective to send your FAEs to them (which they'd expect anyway) than to hire technical writers.
(EDIT: FWIW I think this is all short-sighted thinking, especially these days. But it's been mainstream industry thinking for a long time.)
