I don't think that's the case.  Of course it takes
time to read and understand a bug thread.

Eli was the one who said (and I agreed):

  Do we have other places where a function called
  from Lisp uses the prefix arg in any similar way?

  It seems bad practice to me: non-interactive calls
  shouldn't use interactive features.

That's about the code behavior, not about the doc
string.  But especially given that unusual (per Eli)
behavior, I think the doc string should make clear
what the behavior is (for Lisp use).  It's not the
usual behavior for Lisp use.
