bug#44341: 27.1; define-minor-mode generates inaccurate docstring

Not to argue, but this kind of thing is all over
Emacs Lisp.

The ability to use an unspecified non-nil value,
to mean/do something that might work against the
natural-language "meaning" of the name of a
symbol argument, is just one example of the vast
amounts of rope that Lisp gives its users to hang
themselves with.

Do you really think `define-minor-mode' should
be fiddled with specially here, to prevent use
of an unfortunately named symbol arg to disable
the mode?

`define-minor-mode' and its doc, and the doc of
minor modes, are already complex/confusing enough.
Do you think fiddling to eliminate confusion over
poorly named symbol values won't actually add to
that confusion?
