If `inline' had a documentation, maybe there would have been more uses
in the last 20 years?

I see ~57 uses in the Elisp sources.  That's quite a lot for an
undocumented macro.  If all functions that appear < 100 times in the
code base would be undocumented, oh my god.

For every function in Emacs, it should be possible to find out what it
is doing in a reasonable amount of time, because we all want to have
readable code.
