Could you change the docstrings accordingly (they all say just
"non-nil") and more importantly the doc of `responsible-p` in the header
of `vc.el` which still says:

;; - responsible-p (file)
;;
;;   Return non-nil if this backend considers itself "responsible" for
;;   FILE, which can also be a directory.  This function is used to find
;;   out what backend to use for registration of new files and for things
;;   like change log generation.  The default implementation always
;;   returns nil.
