correct as-is Maverick DMS short - error in flight manual?

[Newbie62]

In the A-10C flight manual where it describes the various HOTAS hats and switches, under DMS short (all directions) with MAV as SOI, it says Reticle up/down/left/right.  That sounds redundant with slew control.  So I've been playing around trying to figure out what DMS short commands actually do with maverick as SOI.  They don't seem to do anything.  Is there actually some functionality there that I just can't figure out, or is this an error in the flight manual?

That refers to the boresighting procedure for the AGM-65, as described in the chapter:

Maverick Display Symbols -> Boresight Symbol to Maverick Line of Sight

In the A-10C manual currently shipped with the Stable version of DCS, you'll find that on page 354.

Okay, I see it now, thanks!  And I now see that the reticle tends to be off by a bit in the HUD relative to the seeker view in the MFCD, so I can also see the utility of it.
