My understanding of the discussed paragraph is that the changes are only
disallowed only among siblings on one level (due to exclusivity rule,
checked in validate_change()). A change in parent won't affect
(non)exclusivity of (valid) children so it's simply allowed.

So the docs (and implementation by a quick look) is sensible.
