The point is to create a scenario where "legal responsibility" doesn't exist anywhere in the process. The legal system doesn't operate with the assumption that someone *must* be guilty of a crime. If someone dies that doesn't necessarily mean that someone *must* have murdered them and we just need to figure out who to pin that on. In this scenario API documentation would be generated without the person ever reading the legally-protected code themselves, so if it's the reading of the code that is the "crime" it's not being performed by any person that could be convicted of it.

It may be that you could argue that he's *causing* it to be read, and criminalize that act itself - analogous to how hiring a hitman is illegal too. But that would make existing legal reverse-engineering practices illegal too, where one may hire a programmer to go and generate the API documentation for a *different* programmer to use in writing a clean-room implementation. I think that would cause more problems than it "solves."
