This is written in - I guess - Indian English, which eschews some grammatical rules that more international English has (like appropriate usage of (in)definite articles). As a result to an international reader it seems a bit... "unpolished".

I think it's fine for the CF Team devs to draft the docs, but they should then be re-parsed by a native English speaker before release.

This applies to any docs, this example just happens to be the one in front of me at the moment.
