IIRC, people seemed to agree and some said that they wouldn't use minibuffer- complete-word anyways - especially for filenames it seems to be clear that minibuffer-complete-word makes no sense. Inputting a space in a file name, however, is a pretty common thing to do nowadays. It seems like the suggestion has been forgotten. It'd be good if somebody took out this define-key or did whatever is needed!
