Thanks for your report, I think this has only been wrong for 30 years:-)
The same true of similar \DeclareTextCommand
I tested as far back as texlive 2014 and these commands have not logged in that time.
The commands last changed in any significant way after this report in 2004
https://www.latex-project.org/cgi-bin/ltxbugs2html?pr=latex/3563
and the change there does not remove logging so I think the current behaviour has been there from the start.
The fntguide text looks to have been copied from \DeclareTextFontCommand
(which does log).
I think we should fix the guide to match the code, not the other way round.
@davidcarlisle I think a change would match the position we seem to have arrived at more generally, i.e. that \Declare...
should log any redefinition.
I guess we should probably do that even if it is a change after 30 years.
Brief outline of the bug
The fntguide says that:
But in fact there isn't any redefinition information in the log when redefining something like
\ss
.Minimal example showing the bug
Log file (required) and possibly PDF file
