The text in question (intended for the Elisp manual) was:
Normally the before-change-functions and the after-change-functions
hooks are called in balanced pairs around each buffer change, enabling
state to be determined in a before-change function and used in an
after-change function. However on rare occasions,
before-change-functions is not called before a buffer change and
after-change-functions is thus called twice in succession. Your
program should be ready to deal with such an occurrence.
The crucial part of that is the first sentence. It is true.
The second sentence is true in essence, though it possibly needs to be
made more accurate to deal with other cases.
