No, but the introduction needs to change too.

"teTeX is an implementation on Donald Knuth's TeX typesetting program.
This package is able to create documents in a variety of formats. The
optional texmfsrc (Tex METAFONT) tarball contains source code for
programs to create and manipulate TeX fonts."

I'm not sure METAFONT should "optional."  Many times it will be called
to generate fonts on the fly when rendering a document.

I haven't head of docstrip, although I can guess.  BTW, I've used TeX
since 1991, but not much recently.

I do have all five of Knuth's TeX/METAFONT books. In those books
METAFONT is always capitalized (in a small caps and somewhat rounded font).
