I was suggesting we modify to allow doc changes that fix errors and push updated docs online (not do fresh releases) and asking why not do that (other than policy)?

Well, I think the tradeoff is simply: do you want to do more work? (or, given the same amount of work, do you think allocating your workforce to backporting doc fixes is worthwhile?)

I'm sure that if enough people want to do such backports, it can happen.
