Actually they're pretty much correct. Unless you are restricting visitors from viewing any threads (which would be better done with usergroups), bots should be just fine, provided that they don't read and send cookies. If you're using IP blocking, that steps up the risk a bit and relies on filters, but so long as those cover the bot in question, the same is true.
Ultimately anyone can still view any thread. What matters is how the visiting machine responds to repeat requests and that's true whether you set things to 1 or 100,000.
As a standard disclaimer, search is an evolving field where many variables are hidden behind the curtain. If you ever discover something to counter the current understanding provided in the docs, by all means, bring it up.
