It’s demoralizing to write write write when you know no one is going to read, and if you link them something more than 100 words long they’ll ask for a meeting instead.
Fair. I find writing a useful exercise even if no one ever reads it (although processes should enforce someone reads it; like a PR).
Calling a meeting anyway is great! You have a document to reference to guide the meeting, answer questions, and scribe discussions/decisions! If your worst case scenario is that your technical document becomes a glorified meeting agenda, that's not so bad.
Also remember that documents live ~forever, so even if you get no immediate response: write for your replacement 5 years from now who has to figure out wtf you were thinking. :)
But occasionally you find yourself years later giving your own thoughts a read read read, and it's helpful that you've taken the time to write write write. Future you will thank you. I'm pretty happy with past me for obsessively documenting some things.
