I’m a fan of the thought of removing the user manual completely

I think that's a bad idea for three reasons:

First, the Website might be (temporarily) inaccessible.

Second, the machine running ClamAV may be blocked from accessing the Internet 
...

Finally, if the documentation is "dynamic", it presumably is for the latest 
release ...

I suspect most ClamAV installations are via packages for the various
distributions.  Please think about the distribution package managers.
If the documentation were not included in the release tarballs they'd
have a great deal more work to do, and the opportunities for errors
and confusion would be increased out of all proportion.
