R. David Murray added the comment:
Because the documentation is correct. There is no bug here. As Brendan said, there is no need to repeat a fundamental (that statements can raise exceptions) in this context. The point of the passage is that
if x: a; b; c;
is equivalent to
if x:
a
b
c
not
if x: a
b
c
And that is what it clearly says, in my opinion. The language reference is a specification and not a tutorial, so more words here would not be a good idea.
