Why are blender docs and related advice either horrendously outdated or plain wrong? (sh.itjust.works)

No matter how often i check blenderdocs, never ocne, and i do mean never once did it help me, their shown pictures for help are so terribly outdated it doesnt even look remotely like current blender anymore.

And when im lucky enough to find something i actually need, the advice is just plainwrong (most recently the knife tool and cut-through, literally wrong information)

I personnaly learned blender almost solely by reading the doc thoroughly, it rarely presented any problem to me and rhe doc is my go to when I have an issue.

How old is your version of blender? I can barely find anything with how different the docs look
