The point of having man pages is that you don't have to remember "arcane spells of args". For huge manpages or manpages in general there is certainly a learning curve on how to read and apply them effectively. But it's also an underrated way of learning about the system you use and deploy your applications on.
You don't listen/understand: man pages are for learning. Just imagine a user refusing to learn and not because of said user's ignorance. You probably didn't invent a new class of programs that do something absolutely new, you just wrote a program with poor design/defaults that require the user to learn how to use said program rather things be intuitive in general.
I can't even get developers to read error messages, let alone documentation. The number of times I've had senior (by title) individuals send me screenshots of stack traces asking for help is too damn high. This field is a joke.
Yes, it happens a lot to me as well. However it baffles me why I would ever want to download and install a tool when I could just read a man page and create an alias for curl and some args. It's a perfectly capable tool that comes with every conceivable distribution.
