The documentation is wrong here, not the code.  SQL92 defines the syntax
as
 <insert statement> ::=
      INSERT INTO <table name> <insert columns and source>
 <insert columns and source> ::=
      [ <left paren> <insert column list> <right paren> ] <query expression>
    | DEFAULT VALUES
<insert column list> ::= <column name list>
