The only thing it does is to scratch an irrelevant itch by people
who peek the codebase and find an old command whose existence does
not even hurt them.  They may have too much time on their hand, but
that is not an excuse to waste other people's time by adding extra
makework on our plate, or changing the behaviour for people who use
the command without explanation.

It's a maintenance burden 

I'm not really worried about the maintainance of a 20-lines long
function ...

that confuses users.

... but I do agree that the doc is really confusing. It would be much
better if the doc could be reduced to:

"This is a synonym for linkgit:git-log[1] --raw --some --other ---options.
Please refer to the documentation of that command."
