I said “to not be documented in the manual” (the majority of (guix …)
modules aren’t documented in the manual); that doesn’t mean that there
aren’t any docstrings.  The manual says that all top-level procedures
should have docstrings (see “16.5.4 Formatting Code”)

    We require all top-level procedures to carry a docstring.  This
  requirement can be relaxed for simple private procedures in the ‘(guix
  build ...)’ name space, though.
