hmmm, I'd rather call it essential reference documentation or template for automation. It's perfectly well suited to automatically strip all comments and then diff the result to ones real world postgresql.conf or some other version postgresql.conf file to find parameters that have been removed or changed with a new PostgreSQL version. This is highly useful for planning migrations and have a quick reference what to check for before actually migrating. So for me this is much more than just a giveaway.
