"Would of course be" vs. "of course would be"

Question

I am not sure about the position of 'of course' inside a sentence.

Please consider these two versions and comment on that:

1. A comprehensive documentation would of course be highly valuable...
2. A comprehensive documentation of course would be highly valuable...

Answer 1

The first option implies a gentler criticism than the second. The second implies that "any fool would know this".
