Comment (by bgamari):

functions have haddock comments and you need to read the Notes in order to
understand everything.

I agree that we should fix GHC's use of Haddock comments. We've been
saying for a long time that all new exported functions should have Haddock
comments. We are much better about this than we used to be but there is
still a long ways to go
