It's pure cosmetics.  With emacs -Q evaluate:

(let ((marker-1 (make-marker))
       (marker-2 (make-marker)))
   (describe-function 'describe-function)
   (with-current-buffer "*Help*"
     (set-marker marker-1 (point-max)))
   (set-marker marker-2 marker-1)
   (goto-char marker-2))

Do you see what I mean?
