The docstring is misleading!  It tells you that you may
use lisp-mode to edit Lisps other than GNU Emacs Lisp
and that is completely false. The only other such Lisp
is Common Lisp.  For mode developers it also misleads
into thinking that lisp-mode is an acceptable ancestor
to use for a new Lisp-like major mode that isn't GNU
Emacs Lisp.  That is also false.

So correcting the misleading statement is a good idea.
