I love this one. We’ve all missed something plain as day at some point. I pride myself on RTFM before I start working with something, but I’ve earned this medal a few times.

Can we also start handing out achievements to repos and/or orgs?

I have a few where “Clear As Molasses” is a good one for the README: “Documents something useful in an entirely opaque manner.” (Edit: Maybe requiring you read the code to understand what the README failed to articulate about something basic?)
