Thanks for the report. Yes, the recent options haven't been added to the
man page. I've seen this while writing my message you've quoted, and
I've fixed this in the emacs-29 branch two days ago.

Since I'm not that fluent with the nroff format, you might cross-check
whether everything is right. And perhaps we could also add an
ENVIRONMENT section.
