If .alt is being used for non-DNS names, you are correct, because non-DNS names cannot be validated, and should never enter the validation process.   However, if it is being used for DNS names, then you have to assume that the stub is validating.   Even though that is not the status quo at present, that's the direction things are likely to go in the future, and this document needs to continue to be correct in the future.
