That’s because xorg-server (and its manual pages) were installed neither
in the global profile nor in your user profile.

In general, just because your system uses a service, say
‘openssh-service-type’, doesn’t mean that the corresponding package,
‘openssh’, is installed in the global profile.

HTH!
