I meant this, as of commit ec615b1..., `org-export-babel-evaluate' set to
`nil' keeps the exporter from running this line

       (org-export-execute-babel-code)

during exports. So, 'no Babel code is run' in the sense that the above
line does not execute.

src-blocks and inline-src-blocks are neither run nor removed, and no
#+results:<etc> or {{{results()}}} are added, removed, or
modified. Babel handles all that. The exporter merely formats those
things once Babel is done.

So the bug, if any, is in the docstring in failing to mention that
everything that babel does is switched off.

Since the behavior that the OP wanted can be had by setting babel
header args, I don't see this as a bug even though the behavior
changed in a way that surprised him.
