Indeed.

When I worked for Coleco, I noticed that ColecoVision game instruction booklets usually ended with something like:

"The Thrill Of Discovery
This game has other features and opportunities than those explained in this booklet. Enjoy the thrill of discovery!"

I don't recall the exact words but it sure was a handy way to explain bugs!
