That seems like an orthogonal issue to me. I've seen places where documentation is only in the source code, no generated web pages, but there is a policy or even just soft expectation to document every parameter, even if it doesn't dd anything. And I've also seen places that make heavy use of these tools that doesn't have any such expectation.
