if it was that simple... ;). the classification of some 'things' changes over time in both directions, regardless of documentation (and then to add insult to injury, there're documented bugs ;).

And let's not forget bugs in documentation itself...

I'm a fan of the maxim that if the code and documentation disagree, then they are both wrong.

Likewise, having worked in places where I was explicitly instructed that if they disagreed, they were both right (yes, really: they contradicted each other, and disobeying the docs would cost money, so *obviously* we had to obey the docs: but changing the existing not-as-documented behaviour was out of the question! sigh.)
