The issue is that it took an extra effort to understand it. Not because
of technical details, but simply because of presence of jokes.

IMHO, the primary aim of manuals is explaining technical information to
the users. Jokes that help to understand or at least does not hurt are
totally fine. But when jokes makes the information harder to understand,
isn't it against the aim of writing a good manual?
