Clay McClure added the comment:

There's a 68% difference in running time between the command-line and programmatic invocations shown in the current documentation, and a 1% difference between the runtimes shown in the patch. I can't speak for why that is the case, but I did find it somewhat confusing when trying to interpret the timeit documentation.

Being a somewhat pedantic and trivial patch, I'm fine if you want to close it wontfix.
