This looks great, thanks for posting!

CSS can really help with making a manual look approachable, especially
with adjusting the text block width.

Could I suggest that the node navigation header would look better if
it wasn't surrounded in white space?

I found the example with a nested @def* block interesting:

It reminded me of this thread:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2022-02/msg00000.html

Nested @def* could be a good way to define parameters, return values, and
so on.  With the new @defline facility the user could define macros like
@param that expanded to "@defline Parameter".
