Only because you take my quotation out of its context. What we want
to avoid is the price of re-reading the directory when the user copies
or deletes or renames a file via Dired commands, _as-an_immediate_result_
of these commands. We cannot possibly avoid re-reading it when the
time comes to check if the buffer is stale and needs to be reverted.
IOW, the directory _will_ be re-read, but only when the notification
about some changes comes in or the 5-sec timer for checking whether
the directory is stale expires. it will _not_ be re-read as result of
your copying or deleting a file.
