My understandding is that it applies to string delimiters or [] shouldn't be used as delimiters at all. It is a bug in my book. Bugs sometimes could sometimes have a use. For example group by was buggy in VFP6/7 but most of us used that buggy version somehow.

PS: And in the bug we are originally talking about quotations were used!
