In fact nowhere in the documentation do you mention
APT::Install-Suggests .

$ find /usr/share/doc/aptitude/html/en -name \*.html|xargs grep 
APT::Install-Suggests
$

But you instead only mention its antidote,
APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant .

$ find /usr/share/doc/aptitude/html/en -name \*.html|xargs grep -h 
APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant |w3m -T text/html -dump
a manually installed package. If APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant
Option: APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant
Default: true
Description: This is an obsolete option; use APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant
APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant This is an obsolete option; use
APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant

Whereas man apt-get has right there on the man page,

   --install-suggests
           Consider suggested packages as a dependency for installing.
           Configuration Item: APT::Install-Suggests.

So, aptitude documents the way to control Suggests removals,
but not the way to control Suggests installs in the first place!
