I write Hebrew, and I want auto-hyphenation. But - LO says it doesn't have hyphenation patterns of Hebrew / for HE-IL; and the TDF wiki language resources page doesn't show such patterns anyway. They need to exist...
Well, it seems LaTeX distributions don't have hyphenation patterns for Hebrew. https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/85500/5640 So now the question becomes: Can we generate them somehow?
For what it is worth, the libhyphen format is somewhat described at https://github.com/hunspell/hyphen/blob/master/README.hyphen (and the other READMEs beside it for more complicated things). Patterns to match text against, with odd numbers as potential hyphenation points and even numbers as not-to-hyphen points IIRC. If there are hyphens used in, e.g. newspapers. is there any known style guide for hyphenation they are following?

I plan on trying to get in touch with some newspapers to see if I can figure this one out. But I do need to clarify that other than in media that is tall and narrow-column, hyphenation is possible but uncommon.
