It's not a matter of misinterpretation per se. The documentation reflects the API, and would apply only to objects you create in your own code. Interface Builder may choose to have its own defaults for objects created by it, and those choices would not be documented by the API, but may be documented by IB-specific documentation. If there is no such IB-specific documentation (which is possible), I would only file a radar that Apple have specific documentation on object defaults in Interface Builder.
