I have reread the man page and concluded that the current wording is
not bugy. It is referring to cgroups(7) which has all the information
but it takes quite some to drill down to the important point. On the
other hand there are many details (like delegation, namespaces) which
makes it quite complex to be concise in clone(2) so it is very likely
better to leave as it is.
