If the manual is printed on paper, the page number is needed for the reader to look up the cross-reference. This issue has been discussed in the past: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2016-11/msg00029.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2016-11/msg00036.html (BTW the discussion containing that message goes into a lot of other extraneous matters - please try and keep discussion germane to the issue at hand.)
