Issue Type

Documentation Improvement

Description

First, I want to thank you for your work in maintaining ActualBudget.
This "local-first" solution, including options that allow exporting data in a readable (text) format, is more than welcome for personal finance tasks.

I am reaching out specifically to @jfdoming , @joel-jeremy , @lelemm , @matt-fidd (thank you for your reply), @MikesGlitch , @RubenOlsen , @youngcw , regarding a PR #6700 of mine involving a small change to the API documentation.

The PR seems to have caused discomfort for MatissJanis, who closed the conversation without any attention to the point under discussion. I am sure it would not have taken more than a few minutes.
Unless MatissJanis is the BDFL, I see no sense in having ended the discussion on that PR in such a rude manner.

Even though the PR has been closed, I reiterate that the change is very small and contributes significantly to the clarity of the documentation.
