Ah, true!  But in agenda view, the help information is:

,----
| C-c C-s runs the command org-agenda-schedule, which is an interactive
| compiled Lisp function in `org-agenda.el'.
| 
| It is bound to C-c C-s, <menu-bar> <Agenda> <Deadline/Schedule>
| <Schedule>.
| 
| (org-agenda-schedule arg)
| 
| Schedule the item at point.
`----

so there is no mention of the argument here (i.e. here we have "arg"
with no explanation which maybe should have given me a hint...).  In
any case, it would be good to have both help entries the same?

True.  There is a point of diminishing return.  

For me, at least, if the same information had been available in the
help entry for the key sequence in the agenda view as in normal org
mode, I would have found it as that's the first thing I do tend to
check.

Thanks,
