A doc string that says that `grow-only' makes the "windows go back to their normal size" is 100% wrong. AFAIK, `grow-only' never returns minibuffer windows to their normal size during a given invocation (reading of input). The best that could be said is that "until their display becomes empty" is unclear, and that something was meant other than the minibuffer being emptied during its current invocation (input reading).
