Comment (by Otto42):

 It is true that the WordPress core code adds them, but it doesn't change
 the fact that the `<IfModule>` lines are really not necessary. If the
 rewrite module is installed on the server, then the configuration code
 works regardless of the `<IfModule>` lines.

 It's possible that they may have been lost over time due to the HTML
 processing and or some amount of copy/paste from the whatever the original
 documentation was. And as you said, you can leave feedback on that
 article. The feedback will be considered if and when the documentation is
 ever updated. At present, there seems to be no need to update the
 documentation.
