Right, as Manuel also pointed out. This could say "remove all but the
part of the file extension following the `.'" and refer to :r. That
seems to be unambiguous, given that :r defines it to include the ".".
(Or we could of course say that :r removed the "." and the file
extension, but that seems to make the description more waffly.)
