Your question seems sincere so I'll give it a sincere response.

The documentation and website are both obviously not written by a human.[1] This doesn't speak to me, in part because I'm the sort of person who thinks those are the interface and UX; but also because I reflexively end up thinking, "If they can't explain to me how it works, then why should I believe they even know how it works?"

I'm not saying you aren't intimate with every little detail, but writing the descriptions yourself is a costly signal and thus valuable for me as a potential user.
