Not sure exactly which advice you're referring to (the text you quoted
above is misleading: it would encourage the naive reader to just do the
work in `after-change-functions` since it's called only once per command
anyway, which they already instinctively do and which is exactly what we
don't want), nor which docstring you're referring to.
