I'm curious if you work in a corporate environment. Middle management gets swamped with stuff like this because the person who wrote the reports thinks the longer the better to show off how good they are at their job.
Amazon fought this trend with their commonly referred 1-pager and >=6-pagers.
I don't have hard rules like Amazon, but one of my common pushbacks on my team is make documents shorter.
