Version 2.7 of the Elisp info pages.
On page "Narrowing", the description of "narrow-to-region" fails to state
what is done should POINT initially be outside the specified region.
There seem to be two canditates for the Right Thing: (1): Move POINT to
the nearest region boundary; (2): Signal an error.
Experimentation shows that (1) is done.
I think this should be documented.

(like "aa"), remove half of them (leaving, say, "a").
