They are, via `highlight-symbol-at-point'. This perhaps the only place in the Emacs manual where symbols are mentioned. 1. It seems (?), by tracking backward through `highlight-symbol-at-point' and then (thing-at-point 'symbol), that `highlight-symbol-at-point' is about highlighting Lisp symbols, not text that has characters with symbol-constituent syntax. If so, it would be helpful for the doc of `highlight-symbol*' to specifically say "Lisp symbol". 2. Assuming that it is in fact about Lisp symbols, please consider adding a link in (emacs) `Highlight Interactively' to (elisp) `Symbols', so readers of the Emacs manual can more easily discover something about Lisp symbols.
