The concern with that is that any FAQ will be developed by the same
small group that controls the github now so they will spin it in an
unrealistic way. You see the problem now with the Bitcoin wiki. While
the wiki has some valuable information, it also has a number of
incorrect and cult-like claims about how Bitcoin works. Tim Swanson has
made some good videos that describe some of the misinformation that
often gets repeated on the Wiki and other places.
I had suggested the info on the Wiki be reevaluated piece-by-piece and
moved to Bitcoin.org but the developers didn't like that. Attempts to
edit the Wiki often leads to the articles being defaced by the
maintainers so that is a waste of time.
