A nice improvement in Emacs 26.1: the manual explains the exact difference between syntax-ppss and parse-partial-sexp:

Doc amendment for syntax-ppss. · emacs-mirror/emacs@913808e
* doc/elisp/syntax.texi (Position Parse): Note, twice, that syntax-ppss is equivalent to parse-partial-sexp from the beginning of THE VISIBLE PART OF the buffer. Final part of the fix for bug #22983.
