Not but there are fewer things (almost none in fact) to document.
Compare
(if (make-network-process :feature :family 'local)
(make-network-process ... ... :family 'local ...))
to
(if (featurep 'networking 'local-sockets)
(make-network-process ... ... :family 'local ...))
That's two different pairs of symbols rather than one and the same.
But I seem to be out-numbered here, so I'll make the change.
