Look closer. That column is "oid" not "old".

AFAICS this page is merely trying to document the role properties that
can reasonably be considered to be kinds of privileges. I don't have
a problem with it not mentioning role name or password, for example.
In any case, if you want a full list of what is in the pg_roles view,
the place to look is under the system views documentation:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/view-pg-roles.html

role-attributes.html is not intended to be a substitute for that.
