Thanks.

I agree with this, but as an R programmer, I would rather read the
docstring via C-h v then read in the elisp code (more likely for the
elisp programmer). But Anyway - anybody who is likely to modify this
variable, likely knows what utils::read.table() means - so no objections.
But wait - I think I get your point now. You are right - the source code
may be the better place for this comment.
Cheers,
Rainer
