I wonder why you are against having enabled system help module and readmehelp module which depends on the help. They are both lightweight and don't interfere into any workflow of any other module.

Unfortunately, for now it is impossible to make the readmehelp module optional because even if you manually install it that will not work automatically for the README files intentionally written keeping in mind the readmehelp module as a required dependency. Yes, it still might be displayed using this trick but that adds additional complexity for those who need nothing except displaying their README file on a module's help page and Github repository. That's why I've created the readmehelp module as this allows to keep three things in one place: module's online help (docs) page (Github), offline help page on the installed Drupal site and just opening the file in a text editor and reading it (the main purpose of the README files).

Nevertheless, I understand that some people don't need any help at all and opened the issue to fix it. So, please let's continue here:

#2946807: Allow using the readmehelp for all modules with no module help.
