> documentation is treated as an afterthought

Bingo.

Do note that people here on HN live in a bubble where, for example, writing tests (any tests, not even good tests) is a given. But out there in the world there's plenty of software coding, a lot of it in major companies, where developers think testing is some cute but useless thing they teach you in college and which can be safely skipped, and managers are completely oblivious about this. Same with writing useful documentation.
