It's not that I personally like or use documentation
in PDF or info format; the choice is not mine.
I see, but my advice included your Scheme example, which is formatted as plain text as well.
IMHO, a tool that formats on the fly, as a tree or list on the standard output in plain text, a sum of cross links, would be actually unusable in practical cases, even if it initially appears helpful.
If you need an autodoc on the fly, you should consider how IDEs interface to the autodoc directory/files, giving hints through popups, beyond the scope of LilyPond (and huge effort to implement for any editor).
Therefore I encouraged you in spending time in observing what is the "de facto standard" way of managing the API doc that is already part of the LilyPond project.
Best,
