It sounds to me like you're really objecting to the devguide living in a separate clone. This doesn't bode well for the prospects of ever splitting the stdlib out from the CPython interpreter core...

Actually, no. I'm objecting to moving documentation for code to a different repo than the code. If/when the stdlib is split out (which I support), then the documentation should go with it.
