What does that mean ? What's wrong with not understanding piece of code ? Sometimes people lost their way in open source. The matter in open source is not sharing free code, it's about sharing knowledge. If documentation does not reflect the way code work then something is bad. Users complaining about code is really important in open source. If you're not agree with that why are you still using open source software ? The "I like it and it works for me" is not enough.
