Error in chapter "Escaping VTL Directives" in the User Guide

the manual says

Consider the following case:
#if( $jazz )
Vyacheslav Ganelin
#end

Whether $jazz is true or false, the output will be
#if($ jazz )
Vyacheslav Ganelin
#end

However, since the #if is escaped, $jazz will be evaluated, to the output will be

#if(true)
Vyacheslav Ganelin
#end

or

#if(false)
Vyacheslav Ganelin
#end

respectively (depending on the value of $jazz)
