Of course. For example, "for" semantics mentions StopIteration. Of course it doesn't mean "whatever builtins.StopIteration currently refers to".
[And in a lot of places it would be possible to say that some builtin is implicit in the statement itself: e.g.
while t: is equivalent to while bool(t):
for a in b: is equivalent to for a in iter(b):
- of course, the docs _don't_ currently say so, so maybe this occurance too should just be deleted. But I still think there are lots of places where docs refer to builtins directly.]
