Standard caveat: When someone claims that documentation says a certain thing,
make sure they provide a quote or specific pointer to where it says that,
else they are wasting your time.
What I see in that README is the standard advisory in the client READMEs:
that once you go to a new client level and use it, you cannot go back.
No product would survive in the marketplace if it required reprocessing
all past data in an upgrade.
