There was a problem hiding this comment.
Because options are usually formatted this way (see https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_documenting.html#linking-and-other-format-macros-within-module-documentation). I'm not entirely sure of this one since wantlist is not an option of the lookup, but of lookup() itself.
