      You can customize this variable.

That is incorrect, because the Documentation of fill-column
does include a star at present.

      The line that says you can customize the variable indicates that this
    ! variable is a user option, as would have indicated a line saying that
    ! you can change at user level the variable.  @kbd{C-h v} is not
    ! restricted to user options; it allows any variable name.

I can't understand that new text.
What is it supposed to mean?
