I guess the same text in the man page could be read several
different ways! The way I read it (which may or may not be
correct) is that the example given is an example of how to
use it *correctly*. It sounds to me like it's warning against
deviating too far from the steps given in the example.
I can see as how the text might allow other interpretations,
though!
