I originally wrote it that way, but it was harder for me to read. (Also slower,
though that doesn't matter these days.) I couldn't find anybody that would want
to call one function but not the other. Plus, having them be separate functions
introduces more opportunity for error, e.g., it wouldn't be correct to call the
new function after calling substitute-command-keys. So I figured we might as
well leave them combined.
How about if we rename substitute-command-keys to describe it better?
substitute-doc-string, perhaps?

Yes, I originally wrote it in Lisp too, but found that it was too tempting to
implement complicated heuristics that would have been a pain to document. (I
even defended some of those heuristics in previous emails -- sorry!) Doing it
in C forced me to come up with something really simple and easy to explain. I'd
rather keep the simple rules now, even if we go back to Lisp (but why bother?).
