2) The docstring doesn't mention that the message is returned.
However, several modules do rely on it (files.el, for example, has
"(y-or-n-p (message ...))".

That sounds nonsensical.  Shouldn't this be
(y-or-n-p (format ...))
instead?

Perhaps the author wanted the prompt to be recorded in the *Messages*
buffer.
