Right. This is documented in font-latex.el itself.

I don't think so. They are both identical (and both a bit
outdated).
font-latex.el is a contributed file to auc-tex, and so auc-tex's
setup doesn't enable it by default. I suppose it should be
better documented, and perhaps added to future versions of
tex-site.el (auc-tex's setup file) as a customizable item.
Would this have helped? I figure 95% of users never go into the
Customize menu...
For the Debian auctex package, the current debconf support could
be supplemented to ask the user if font-latex and bib-cite should
be turned-on.
