Not exactly. If you read it again carefully, you'll notice `sit-for'
has two modes of invocation:

 - (modern):  (sit-for SECONDS &optional NODISP)
 - (old): (sit-for SECONDS &optional MILLISECONDS NODISP)

So the function is really defined as

 (sit-for SECONDS &optional NODISP OLD-NODISP)
Thanks, I did see that (though I am a lousy reader) but OLD-NODISP is still not mentioned. An easy way to fix this particular problem would perhaps be to just change the description of the old format (since that is just a part of the doc string I assume):

 - (old): (sit-for SECONDS &optional MILLISECONDS OLD-NODISP)
