I agree that it's confusing when one piece of LIMIT documentation is not with
the rest.

If looking for information about limits, I would go here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/queries-limit.html
and consider it to be an authoritative source.
If somebody told me something about LIMIT that was not on that page, I'd say
to them to go back and double check the docs...
