Re: info info should return something more than just an error message

    1. Could you please write an info for the info program so that the
    `info info` doen't return just an error message, but provides a
    full length description about how info works, with line count
    larger than `man info` ?

There is a info page for the GNU info program.

    2. Could you please do a RCA as to why we get the error "info: No
    menu item 'man' in node '(dir)Top'" when we do `info man`? I
    believe this shouldn't be displayed.

It is due to your GNU/Linux distribution not having properly installed
the GNU info documentation.  You can download the manual for GNU info
from: https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/info-stnd/
