It's configurable in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
I certainly recall when the new middle button came up as button 3.

Hmm... Thanks, didn't think of that context. The documentation
definitely needs improvement then, because it is not clear that
'Button1/Button2' refers to the mouse or trackpad and *not* buttons one
is supposed to see on the screen. The doc reads as if it is telling you
'where', rather than
Paul,
The confusion there possibly arises from an attempt to provide a description
which is both OS independent and specific device independent. The
documenters have to cover single button mice in MacOSX, and a huge variety
of mouse devices in the Windows and Linux environments as well as trying
ut, I'm not any sort of expert.

Looks like a documentation error where a translatable string
'placeholder' was literally placed
Looks like a documentation error where a translatable string
'placeholder' was literally placed in the text rather than the proper
language-specific label for the buttons.
A bug should probably be filed for this.

On pages 75 & 76 (87 & 88 of the printer dialog) of the Help Manual there
are references to "Button1" and "Button.2" I have not been able to
identify either of these buttons.
