Well, ...

C-h v LaTeX-math-list RET

LaTeX-math-list is a variable defined in `latex.el'.
Its value is nil

Documentation:
Alist of your personal LaTeX math symbols.
^^^^^

And

(info "(auctex) Mathematics")


   The variable `LaTeX-math-list' holds the actual mapping.

 -- User Option: LaTeX-math-list
     A list containing key command mappings to use in `LaTeX-math-mode'.
     The car of each element is the key and the cdr is the macro name.


So there is a good case to be made for our documentation not working
to well for this use case.
