I suspect that it is significant that these manuals are both for medical (i.e. highly regulated) products, and that in both cases the total page count is exactly 40. I'm hypothesizing that at some point in the product's regulatory history it was established that the product shall have a 40-page manual, and that is what the company is delivering. Our healthcare dollars hard at work...
