In (emacs) Icomplete, it is said about fido-mode that “Another
noteworthy aspect is that ‘flex’ is used as the default completion style
(*note Completion Styles::).”

In (emacs) Completion Styles, ‘flex’ is not mentioned at all. It seems 
to be only mentioned in the manual in the following pages:
- (emacs) Icomplete
- (emacs) Antinews

In GNU Emacs 27.1 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.5, 
cairo version 1.16.0)

Thanks, I added a description of 'flex' to "Completion Styles".
