The word "patches" refers to sending patches, not applying or testing.
It only makes sense for people who know how to create patches.

In addition, we have https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html
detailing how to propose patches to Org.

On the other hand, testing the proposed patches is also a kind of
Feedback and can be thought as fitting to the manual section.

It might. It is probably even useful. Would you mind writing several
paragraphs for the manual about applying patches?
