It doesn't mention that "help path foo bar" prints the new path either. The way to print the path is with "show path". "path" alone happens to print the new path after adding zero directories to it. If both "path foo bar" and "show path" print the path and the documentation doesn't say so for either, then the documentation is incomplete for both and ought to be fixed.
