That may be true on a technical level. But the identically worded text 
in the documentation implies otherwise. Maybe I'm nitpicking this. Even 
if I submitted a bug to request a clearer explanation in the 
documentation, I doubt it would get change. The programmer still has an 
obligation to test the code to make sure that it works as expected, 
which was what I did that until I found the concise statement that 
worked exactly as I wanted it to.

Thank you,

Chris R.
