Nope, why it takes an expert   ;-)

You pretty much must as you said try:

Oh, and take notes, or you'll do it all again.  The majority of user
adjustable Expert Configuration stanzas are in *common.xcs* found here:

https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/officecfg/registry/schema/org/openoffice/Office

I find that sorting the Expert Configuration dialog by the Preference Name
field makes it easier to locate the corresponding source.  For some of the
more obscure  *value* settings (without comments in the .xcs) you have to
dig into the corresponding source.

As to the Help, this is all that has been done thus far for using the Expert
Configuration dialog:
https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Expert_Configuration
<https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Expert_Configuration>  

Or in the actual Help source, and a couple of the Help articles that explain
setting a value:

Documentation team is always happy for assistance, especially on a large
project like capturing all these would be.
