Also, the doc should not just say that the predicate "should be a
predicate function such as `yes-or-no-p'. That is confusing and not
very meaningful.  What does it mean to be a predicate "such as
`yes-or-no-p'?

It should say that it is a function that is used as a predicate.
It should say what true and false return values mean (what they do).
And it should say that the function must accept at least one argument.
