It's not very productive to say that any documentation that goes out
of date (as so much does) is "lying". That word implies a deliberate
attempt to deceive.

That's why the line appears under the heading "Known issues and warnings".
You seem to think that a large software project should just
miraculously appear, fully formed and perfect, with precise,
comprehensive documentation. Unfortunately, software is more
like a work of art that has to be sculpted into perfection,
which takes time, trouble and effort.
