"Customizing the X session (new method)" should be seen as describing
additional customisation features rather than a hint to do without
~/.xsession. The intention of ~/.xsessionrc is to source environment
variables but it can be (ab)used for other purposes.

For example, it could start a terminal:

  gnome-terminal &

The advantage over ~/.xsession is that the window manager or desktop
session would be started from the alternatives system whereas
~/.xsession also has to start a window manager or desktop session. You
would have to have

  gnome-terminal &
  exec gnome-session
