Not at all. 

Read the description of `pop-up-frame-alist'. It talks about special "pop-up"
frames, and it gives examples of them. It is the analog of
`special-display-frame-alist'. Both "supercede the values given in
`default-frame-alist'.

Read the description of `pop-up-frames'. It is completely general and refers to
all frames. It is the analog of `pop-up-windows'. 

There is nothing new in this. Look at the C code for `display-buffer' in Emacs
22 (or 21 or 20). It does not refer to `pop-up-frame-alist' at all. It uses
`pop-up-frames' the same way it uses `pop-up-windows': to know whether to use a
separate frame (or window, in the latter case).

`pop-up-windows':
"Non-nil means `display-buffer' should make a new window."

`pop-up-frames':
"Whether `display-buffer' should make a separate frame."

Those have nothing to do with superceding the values in `default-frame-alist'.

I'm afraid you don't know what you're talking about on this question. Sad to
say, the person who translated `display-buffer' from C to Lisp might have been
in the same boat.
