Thanks! I know the difference, just bad at terminology.

I have disabled backups everywhere since 1994, because there was a
 sysadmin that hated the "~" files I dropped everyhwere I had edited
 config files.

But at least this gave me the incentive to google up why my 'C-h i' in
my emacs on debian didn't have the emacs manual:
 https://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/48214

So... after
    apt install emacs-common-non-dfsg
I can now read the emacs manual in the emacs info reader...
