Perhaps the window sticker SHOULD get more respect than a BS; but the rhetoric opining that documentation shouldn't be worth anything is largely irrelevant:
just because you WISH it so, doesn't MAKE it so! Bottom line is that purchasers of collectible cars want proof of options which requires documentation: The original BS is typically thought of as the best source of this information and people assign value accordingly.....like it or not.
I wouldn't recommend parting out a perfectly good car due to a lack of documentation and GG certainly isn't one of my favorite people, nonetheless you need to make a judgement call before restoring any vehicle and rust, damage, condition the presence of original components, body stampings, VIN tags, fender tags and yes, documentation are all going to play a part in determining the suitability of a car for a resto.
FWIW, I don't have the BS for my car but I wish I did.
