For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I don't disagree that Drupal's docs are all over the place (as well as its whole ecosystem, but that's another debate), but the API doc section at least shows some consistent structure, and I think that's what the OP was looking for.
I found Drupal's documentation pretty terrible when I tried to use it to learn how to build a site. There were introductory docs that described the various components of the system, and advanced docs for experienced developers, but no solid sample project to bridge the gap between the two.
Not to single Drupal out for criticism, that's a very common problem with developer docs.
