Thanks for aggregating this and writing it up! It's good to have this documented.
This content is a little too tutorial style for a docstring, which is typically primarily for reference (i.e. concise, precise, and comprehensive specification of the behavior of an object). Perhaps you could put some of it in an "extended help" section (described here) to make the primary docstring a bit shorter.
