I think there are quite a few of these.

However, I'm not sure that there is a strong need to change them for
Emacs 29 -- at least not in the user documentation.  Users might be
consulting Emacs 29 documentation, yet still want to use their Init file
on Emacs 28 or older.

How about waiting with updating all of this documentation on master
until after Emacs 29 has been released?
