Yes, sure!  I will go through the Org manual and check what can be done.

Though I think Richard's and Glenn's original point was that the Org
project uses the ".org" file as its original source in its own git
repository ("org-manual.org"), whereas it distributes ".texi" with
emacs.git ("org.texi")---so what is in core Emacs is technically not the
original source.

That was the issue with my themes and is why I am now sharing the
".texi" in addition to the ".org".  If I notice any further
inconsistencies, I will address them.
