Yes, "m" should not be mentioned. But I think you got it backwards again:

Return @code{#t} iff @var{items} is a list or vector such that, for
each element @var{x} and the next element @var{y} of @var{items},
@code{(@var{less} @var{y} @var{x})} returns @code{#f}.

Note the order of x and y in (less? y x) in the last line.
