True. I inferred it from

  'content').

which, IMO, sounds like it is a surprising fact.

As in every AST, some nodes are terminal (no contents), and some are not
(contents).

This distinction is made in `org-element-greater-elements', i.e.,
non-terminal elements. See also `org-element-recursive-objects' for
non-terminal objects.

Contents imply Org syntax. This would defeat the purpose of an example
block.
