Subject: bug#39802: (info "(emacs) Init Rebinding") needs to say it is impossible to unbind local keys

On(info "(emacs) Init Rebinding")
at the end, please have the page "admit" that their is no way to unbind a key from a
local map. That would save the user a lot of guessing.
Currently the page just ends in an example of binding a key in a local
map. Users need to know it is in fact impossible to unbind them.
