Am I wrong ? Yes, you are wrong. emacs-xtra.txi is part of the single Emacs manual (which is why you don't see info/emacs-xtra.info after you build Emacs). The reason for its existence is explained in the following comment at the beginning of emacs-xtra.texi: @c This is a separate manual to avoid making the Emacs User manual too @c large in print. In the Info format, the chapters included below @c are part of the Emacs User manual. Today's lesson: it is not always enough to find some Grep hit, you should also look around to make sure that hit indeed supports your theory 😉.
