Is it a bad idea touching upon the recommended convention (both FUNC
as the first ARG and wrapper calling the original function) in the doc
string?  Or do you think the example speaks for it.

A wrapper calling the original function is essential for the
recursion, otherwise the following wrappers in the same hook variable
will be ignored.  "While this macro is calling each wrapper ..." may
imply this though.
