This sort of arrangement means the writers have no input
into the product development, and just document whatever
comes out of engineering. Might be a good arrangement
for a writer who's a "glorified secretary" with no technical
knowledge, but if the writers actually know something
about the product and what it's supposed to do it robs the
development process of a potential resource for identifying
areas that need improvement. When documentation happens
all through the development process, it can add visibility to things that don't work long before anyone in QA ever sees the product.

Are you saying that there are no companies (that aren't on their way out of business) that schedule the real discovery and writing for when the prototype hardware and the early release-candidate software start to arrive?
