I agree that the comment as-is is bogus.  But it would be good to state
that quirks should go into the LLDs if they aren't for devices on a
physical bus like SAS, Fibre Channel or parallel SCSI.  Most quirks
theses days are for unusually buggy consumer devices like UFS or
usb-storage/uas and are better placed there instead of in the core
scsi code.
