[...], why isn't it documented?

this is the easier of your questions:

The behaviour is not part of the documented interface, because we do not want
to commit it.  IOW, we do not want to guarantee that a future version of
Autoconf will have the same behaviour.

Does this present a problem for you?

no - I've no intention on using your work, given the stated standards.
