Does https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/disks-growing.html need updates because of cylinder checksums (ufs cotnext)?

This was today in a head -r325997 context that has been a
-r325997 from its first creation: the creating environment
was also -325997 (but had been -r325700 some time back and
has history going back to 11 and 10).

No such console notices prior to following those
instructions. But I was not in sight of the console
during the sequence or later for a while.

More context:

amd64 guest under a Windows 10 Pro Hyper-V but
the filesytem is "directly" on a PCIExpress 3
Optane (no NTFS or such on that device). (The
kernel and initial /etc/fstab are from a .vhd
file on NTFS. The fstab points to / being on
the Optane. The root file system is not split
across multiple mount points.)
