[389-users] Clarification on passwordMaxSeqSets

I'm looking at the RH documentation for passwordMaxSeqSets, found here:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/11/html/configuration_command_and_file_reference/core_server_configuration_reference#cnconfig-passwordMaxSeqSets

Their wording seems a little unclear, to me. The paragraph, before the
example states: "If you set the passwordMaxSeqSets parameter to a
value higher than 0, Directory Server rejects passwords with duplicate
monotonic sequences exceeding the length set in the parameter."

But, in their example, they list a password with two sequences of "XYZ".
And they say that setting the value to 2 would prevent that password.
But according to the paragraph before the example, shouldn't it be set
to 1?

I have passwordMaxSequence set to 3. Can somebody clarify how
passwordMaxSeqSets should be set to prevent any duplicate sequences?

Thanks,
Bryan
