I confirm this is more correct.

BTW, I observed one strange effect: after the *Help* buffer is displayed
on one window, the next time it's always displayed in the same window
where it was displayed previously:

0. emacs -Q
1. C-h f car RET
2. C-x o
3. C-h i
4. C-h f car RET
   is displayed in the same window, whereas
5. C-h f cdr RET
   is displayed in another window
