Precisely. And we don't say that here. See my
suggestion that says exactly that. That's _one_
of the possible forms of the argument sexp. IF
it has that form (:append F) THEN F is evaluated
to give the function that's added. OTHERWISE
the whole sexp arg is evaluated to give the
function that's added.
This kind of thing is _not_ done in a gazillion
places.

The behavior is quite unusual; that's why.

I don't think what you suggested changes/adds anything.
You just changed "FUN" to "function FUN", no? The
problem isn't understanding that arg as providing the
function to add to the hook. The problem is to get
that FUN isn't simply evaluated and it isn't simply
_not_ evaluated. It's either a sexp of a certain form
or it's not, and the treatment of it is different in
those two cases.
