I posted that thinking that perhaps tcp-ok was some sort of special case
in sendmail.  After further investigation and a couple of responses (thank
you), I've determined that these are just leftovers for some older version
of the configuration files I have.  Those configuration files that define
it either define it just like the "tcp" mailer or only use one of the two.

I figure that it must have been in one of the Berkeley samples sometime,
and made it this far, even though it's now vestigial.
