Nearly every single technical book I have ever read has pages and pages of fluff to pad it out to some arbitrary length that the author or the publisher thinks is necessary to make it worth the price.

Something similar happens to YouTube videos once the creator stars making a living off them. They start making padding videos just to get something out for the week.
