Yes you do.  Lars and the Emacs maintainers are on this list.

Is anyone else here concerned about the name of that file?

Perhaps you should change the first line of the file, then.
It says,

  ;;; gnus-cloud.el --- storing and retrieving data via IMAP

Perhaps this ought to say

  ;;; gnus-WHAT.el --- storing and retrieving data via a mail server

How about gnus-noncloud.el?
That would make the joke clearer so we could all get it.
