I wouldn't draw that conclusion yet. There simply hasn't been much
traffic on the list yet.
I joined this list too late to see your previous post, but upon
searching the archives I found this one:

In fact there are lots of LiveFonts built with different values. Are
there really any that just use the demo values? That would be odd. Some
third-party LiveFonts can be found at the following links:

I'm not sure what you mean by "proper documentation." Are there some
particular FontScript commands that are unclearly documented in the
LiveType manual, or is it a more general thing? Granted, some of the
metrics like the pivot point and anchor point may require some trial
and error, but once you've got the first couple of glyphs figured out,
the rest should go smoothly.
If you have any more specific questions, I may be able to be more
helpful.
