This is in Introduction to Emacs Lisp. That manual wasn't seriously reviewed since long ago, perhaps never. Reports about incorrect and outdated stuff there are welcome. That said, I think you may be misinterpreting the text. It says that split-window-quietly is part of slowsplit.el, not that it's part of Emacs. I indeed didn't find slowsplit.el in the 10 sec I invested into looking for it on the net, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and AFAIU doesn't diminish from the point the text in question tries to make. The point the text is trying to make is how to load and customize extensions to Emacs that are not bundled with the official distribution. Whether slowsplit.wl exists or not is pretty much immaterial for that. Thanks.
