You should talk to the FSF about this, it is they who publish printed
manuals and sell them. I have no idea what they consider when they
decide on these issues.

I'm not sure I understand what that means. What is a "digital"
version?

How are you looking? E.g., the first menu item in emacs-xtra.texi is
"Autorevert", and if I type "g Autorevert RET" in the Emacs manual, I
get to that node.
IOW, the chapters of this manual are chapters and sections in the
Emacs manual in Info format. There's no separate manual in Info.

You interpret "Advanced" too literally in this case. I think it's a
euphemism.
