Trust but verify. I can't believe how difficult it was to find a formal explanation. But even that was less than complete.

The manufacturers don't like to talk about the 'odd' stuff. Especially since AF took over, so that the distance markings, if there at all, are redundant for all but a tiny % of users. You found an explanation in the manual for a very long, very expensive lens expected to be used by photographers expected to include a large % who may need and appreciate the info.

Oly has been worse about µ4/3 shutter shock. They included right from the start the Anti-Shock, with settings down to the 1/8 sec. But mention in the manuals runs from quite obscure to virtually invisible, never admitting to a problem and being clear how to ameliorate it.
