So even if it is not reserved, that non-reserved status should be mentioned?

Would you do the same for all non-reserved prefix keys?
For all non-reserved keys, prefix or not?

Would you point out (assuming it is not "reserved") that [f2] is a predefined
prefix key but to which you can add your own suffix keys?  And ESC?  And C-x 8
*?  And <header-line>?  And so on?

If George Carlin had taken that approach we wouldn't have the 7 dirty words.
We'd have an exhaustive treatise on all of the non-dirty words.
