Add a 'Why not Context7 or generic docs retrieval?' section #13

Description

@ayhammouda

Why

The obvious objection is: 'Why not just use Context7 / a browser / generic fetcher?' If the README does not answer that directly, users will assume this project is redundant.

Points to cover

  • This is Python stdlib-focused, not broad library docs.
  • Official CPython docs are the source of truth.
  • Version-aware lookup matters for Python 3.10-3.14.
  • Section-level retrieval saves tokens versus full-page dumps.
  • Local read-only index means no API keys and no hosted dependency at query time.

Acceptance criteria

  • README has a concise comparison section.
  • It is honest about when users should prefer generic retrieval instead.
  • No dunking on other tools; position this as specialized, not universal.
