No, it doesn't. It refers to a different issue: a tendency to use
@ref without "see" or anything like that, because people think about
HTML-style hyperlinks. Here's a relevant example:
@multitable @columnfractions .30 .20 .50
[...]
@item agent expression @tab length of @tab @ref{agent expression object}
Another one:
@table @code
[...]
@item -address [@code{on}|@code{off}]
Set printing of addresses.
Related setting: @ref{set print address}.

They are unrelated. Perhaps the second one should be made more
explicit.
