I see in the info a recommendation to not delete .newsrc.eld and to
not mess with the topic topology variable.  Nothing about dealing with
any of the various group lists.

I effectively do what you do, but I don't edit .newsrc.eld.  I have
gnus-save-killed-list set to nil.  After killing the nndoc group I
just wait until I restart gnus (though that may be a long time :-) and
then it's gone for good.
