Well, yes - but Carsten knew[fn:1] there'd be someone (we won't mention
names :-) ) who would do that and took care to do the
add-hook/remove-hook thingie while setting up the mode when you open an
org file: see line 5016ff in org.el. So it sounds a bit more ominous
than it actually is.
OTOH, if your .emacs opens an org file between lines 18 and 1568, all
bets are off.

``git blame'' fingers commit c11a0b2d which indicates that there were indeed
complaints.

I had forgotten all about this, but indeed, the hook makes sure
things are OK, so the sentence could be removed from the
docstring.
