No, the manpage is not incorrect. -p will download all inlined images,
sounds, and referenced stylesheets. It will _not_ download anything that
is linked to only from CSS files: that's true whether you use -p or -r
or some combination. If it can find it from HTML attributes (src="",
href=""), it will download it. If it can't, it won't.

If you're running into a situation where Wget actually does download
something with -p that it won't with -r, then you need to supply a
reproducible example, with a real URL, and specify the version of the
wget package you're using.
