Of course it does. Always. 

Software should always be as intuitive and well-documented as possible. There
are zero exceptions to this. Often you can reduce the amound of documentation
if the UI is sufficiently intuitive.

I certanily miss the old days where few people had computers, and the ones
who did knew how to use them because they were tinkerers and hackers and
whatever. But relying on search engines and other offloading documentation
onto proactive endusers? I'm surprised that this is even considered to
possibly be okay.
