I don't necessarily agree, but anyway, it doesn't really matter, IMHO.
What does matter is that someone who wants to find a description of a
command--any command--should know in what manual to look. Working
with more than a single manual at a time is not very convenient in
most Info readers.

Since the internals manual omits more than it describes, I expect
someone who messes with the internals to read the code more than the
manual. So having all the commands in one manual is more convenient
even for a GDB developer.
