What _is_ advertised in the manual?

If a new frame is created by 'display-buffer', its parameters are
determined by

(1) any 'pop-up-frame-parameters' entry found,

(2) the value of 'pop-up-frame-alist' (if the function specified by
     'pop-up-frame-function' processes it - the default does) and

(3) the value of 'default-frame-alist'.

So if you use the 'display-buffer-base-action' specification from the
top, only 'default-frame-alist' will be used because you neither
customized any 'pop-up-frame-parameters' nor 'pop-up-frame-alist' (the
latter should not be used anyway).  All based on the assumption that
you have customized 'switch-to-buffer-obey-display-actions' so that
Menu->Buffers indeed tries to pop to the buffer.
