I'm not sure what more you need. It already says:
When a buffer is changed, the region that Font Lock refontifies is
by default the smallest sequence of whole lines that spans the change.
While this works well most of the time, sometimes it doesn't---for
example, when a change alters the syntactic meaning of text on an
earlier line.
