 Probably more for historical reasons now, but in days of yore the
documentation was much more difficult to update so tech notes were the
quickest way of getting out amendments, updates etc.

Subject:Re: OT: Reports Server 12.2.1 doc refers to itself

found tech note REP-69 REP-56133 Errors When Trying to Run Reports
With DESTYPE=FILE in Reports 12c (Doc ID 2070662.1)
Why doesn't Oracle's documentation include the information in the tech
notes?  Then they... wouldn't need as many tech notes.
anyway, problem solved.  (until the next problem, e.g. Grails 3.0.9
onto WebLogic)
