gnus-use-backend-marks
If non-nil, Gnus will store article marks both in the .newsrc.eld file and in the backends. This will slow down group operation some.
But grepping `gnus-use-backend-marks' in gnus codebase shows no reference.

Yup; it was removed in 2011. I've now removed the left-over mention in
the Gnus manual in Emacs 28.

So the Emacs manual should be synchronized with Gnus's?

No, thatʼs not necessary: Gnus is developed within the Emacs
repository these days.

Oh, I see.
The Emacs online manual is about Emacs 27, but the manual of Emacs 28 has been updated. This bug ticket can be closed since it has been resolved.
