This is yet another unsubstantiated position statement.  The proof of
the DoS has been posted several times now in a variety of
circumstances.

You've been told this 3 times before.  Please stop with the empty
position statements, they contribute nothing but noise and undermine
the quality of the discussion.  Support your claim, or don't make it.

> nor is the documentation provided by GNU radio of bad quality.

Are you talking to me?  I never said whether the quality was good or
bad.  Others did.

There are much bigger issues here than round corners, smooth interface
animations, or whatever it is you subjectively want to call "quality".

How does someone get GNU radio documentation in their possession for
offline use if they cannot first access it online?  Hence the whole
discussion on why violating the GFDL by failing to include the
documentation with the software is a problem.

This is why quoting is important.

Who can possibly know what you're calling hostility if you don't
quote?  We've seen heavy use of logical fallacy from you (false
analogy, position statements with no attempt at supporting them, straw
men without quotes, emotional appeals), which I find hostile because
it shows you're just looking to fight rather than discuss civilly.
You will come off as less hostile if you stop these shenanigans and
debate the issues straight.  Avoid fallacy.  Support your claims, or
don't make them.
