Right, it's sort of hinted at in the elisp manual (11.9.3 Lexical Binding):
Note that functions like ‘symbol-value’, ‘boundp’, and ‘set’ only
retrieve or modify a variable’s dynamic binding (i.e., the
contents of its symbol’s value cell).
I think we should be a little more specific, not
just give examples, something like:
Note that functions which take a symbol argument (like
‘symbol-value’, ‘boundp’, and ‘set’) can only retrieve or modify a
variable’s dynamic binding (i.e., the contents of its symbol’s
value cell).
