So submit a patch to the documentation. One of the very first emails to
answer your original post said that a patch to the documentation would
be accepted and probably applied promptly.
The issue is understood. No point in going on and on and on about how
the documentation is wrong in your opinion. Spend your time fixing it
instead of bitching about it.
