Hi Shawn, You can trust the section header, those lines are referring to style when dealing with implements and extends.
The reason we are so verbose in this spot is partly because some of this is left verbatim from PSR-2 as we added around it and partly because we want to be sure we cover all bases when dealing with single line vs multi-line class declaration lines.
