Previously man pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces. There's probably more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be added here. Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files, libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue. -- Fix typo.
