Let's not overreact. Someone made a commit, someone else didn't go check
the original commit to see it was legit and asked a question. The original
bonafides were provided. Case closed. No need to make a federal case out of
it. The doc committer learned to take a little extra care on their commit
messages, it seems, as doc committers committing to src get a little extra
scrutiny. The original complainer likely noticed the info was in the
original commit and may check there in the future before complaining. Or
maybe he won't. It isn't a big deal either way.

None of this requires a change to the rules.
