It was meant to be tongue-in-cheek :). Perhaps I should not have assumed that everyone else was as familiar with the POSIX documentation; I figured that most readers would know that most pages say that. But, that was the result of a string of many different searches attempting to find someone explaining why this was a good idea or why anyone would want to use it. I think in this case, it's accurate.
