This is how `C-h f' on that starts:

after-find-file is a compiled Lisp function in ‘files.el’.

(after-find-file &optional ERROR WARN NOAUTO
AFTER-FIND-FILE-FROM-REVERT-BUFFER NOMODES)

So it's consistent, even if the arg is "really" _'d.

I think it means "if this is what you used to use, use this similar
thing instead".  Seems clear to me.

It calls

(after-find-file nil nil t)

so if it did, it's been fixed.
