Very good point. I've just fixed the manual so as not to give such bad
advice any more (in the past the use of ;;; for normal commments was
considered OK, even though it clashed with outline-minor-mode and lisp-mnt,
this has only been adjusted recently).
But note that my remark wasn't just about convention: since the local
variables are used to set the outline-minor-mode, clearly you want to follow
outline's conventions and thus avoid ";;;" even if such comments were
usually considered perfectly acceptable.

Yes, the `mode' settings was mostly meant for major modes, not minor modes.
Activating a major mode resets most minor modes, so the order is important:
lisp-mode should be activated first (which seems to be obtained
unintuitively by placing it at the end).
