In other words, a doc string.

Yes, many functions in Emacs unfortunately lack doc strings. It is not
very difficult to find them. Let me save you the trouble of opening
bugs for them all:

(let (undocumented)
  (mapatoms (lambda (s)
              (and (fboundp s)
                   (not (documentation s))
                   (push s undocumented))))
  undocumented))

Would you like to write some?

Had you tried it (removing the last ")"), you would've caught an unrelated bug:

 => *** Eval error ***  Symbol's function definition is void:
c-put-char-property-fun

In cc-defs.el, `c-put-char-property-fun' is aliased to the output of
an expression that is nil on current Emacs.

C-h f c-put-char-property-fun <ENTER>

c-put-char-property-fun is an alias for `nil',
which is not defined.  Please make a bug report.

Similarly, had I tried it in emacs -Q, I would have seen a similar
problem with advertised-widget-backward.
