Where did you see that text?  In Emacs 29.1 the prompt says this
instead:

  Indent region with TAB, <left>, <right>, S-<left>, S-<right>

> Or maybe say
> Type TAB, <left>, <right>, S-<left>, S-<right>, to indent region

> Type <left>, <right>, S-<left>, S-<right>, or TAB to indent region

This is indeed better; changed.

Mention where?
