I understand the sentiment, but for me, I actually prefer writing the documentation myself on my projects. It forces me to make sure that I understand the PR that's coming in, since I'm going to have to maintain it into the future anyway. I also want to maintain a consistent organization and style in my documentation that is difficult to explain to other people. So it's far easier to write it myself, than to ask the contributor to go through review cycles on the documentation.
