It talks about "in the middle of a sequence .. that ... is invisible"
Emacs cannot display the cursor when point is in the middle of a
sequence of text that has the ‘display’ or ‘composition’ property, or is
invisible. Therefore, after a command finishes and returns to the
command loop, if point is within such a sequence, the command loop
normally moves point to the edge of the sequence, making this sequence
effectively intangible.
The situation I encountered is when point ends up not in the middle, but
already on the edge. So, Emacs moving point to _other_ edge was
surprising.
