Translator here. Actually, that was our collective effort
towards weird wording. The original translation I sent to Mike
for editing stated “*for once* header files are not required”—I
meant *for instance* but confused is with *for once*. Mike,
instead of correcting it into *for example* or *for instance*,
simply dropped *once*. Then I missed it when reviewing his
edits.
Haha. I interpreted "for once" to mean "on this occasion", which
seemed really out of context. "for" worked as a more general
substitute for it. "for example" never crossed my mind. I'll
change it.
