Thatʼs not a typo, but I guess it doesnʼt really change the meaning.

documentation. Unfortunately, I cannot find this rule just now.

It's in the Glossary of the Emacs manual.

JFTR: (info "(elisp) Documentation Tips")
• Avoid using “iff” (a mathematics term meaning “if and only if”),
since many people are unfamiliar with it and mistake it for a typo.
In most cases, the meaning is clear with just “if”. Otherwise, try
to find an alternate phrasing that conveys the meaning.
