Turning the DOC option off, and setting NOPORTDOCS are the same for audio/jack.

Yes, or in the build environment, or in an included Makefile.

You retain a few manpages, but lose a lot of detailed API documents
that many users don't need.  In any event, you can download them from
the jack website:

Read the doxygen documents:

That is why they were just removed from the default package.

No, but maybe more than the average person who builds audio/jack wants
to handle.
