--- Comment #1 from Alexander Ziaee <concussious.bugzilla@runbox.com> ---
Maybe that's a feature?

With compressed manual pages, you can install a locally modified manual page
alongside the compressed ones. Man(1) chooses the uncompressed version first,
and the compressed versions are still tracked and updated with the system,
while leaving the locally modified manuals alone. There are other ways to do
this, but this way is zero conf.

Nobody told me to do it this way, but I've been doing this for years.

If others agree that it's better to clean them up, I'm okay with that.
