Not sure what paperwork you're referencing, television manual? When the FCC did the phase out of analog broadcasting there were both digital and analog channels being broadcast so TV manufacturers made the tuners capable of receiving both. There really isn't any cost benefit to eliminate it.
I'm not sure but I think some cable companies still use analog signals to provide "basic cable" over the low VHF channels. As the signal is transmitted over the cable and not over the air it's not controlled by the digital OTA transition.
