Am I supposed to read every reference on a man page just to know what
to expect from a function?

If the reference is from John Chamber, you are supposed to read it.

As a joke, it's funny.



Not a joke. John Chambers is the authority in R object systems. Please do
not mock him or resources pointing to his works.

I perfectly know John Chambers' work, thank you, and there was no
mockery towards him.

If you really believe that references should be needed to know what to
expect from a function call, then we work with different definitions
of "manual". But judging from the excellent R documentation, I would
say that the R maintainers don't share your view.
