Error in "What is the Difference..." Help Center Document

In the Help Center document What is the Difference Between the Free Geocaching Intro App, the Paid Geocaching App, Geocaching Basic Membership, and Geocaching Premium Membership? it says:

 

With the free Geocaching Intro app as a Basic member:

View all geocaches types, up to level 1.5 Difficulty and level 1.5 Terrain (D 1.5/T 1.5). Grey circles denote "Premium Member only" caches.

 

This is incorrect.

 

Basic members with the free app cannot view all geocache types. They can view only traditional caches.

 

Grey circles do not denote Premium Member Only Geocaches. Grey circles denote caches that are not traditional, that have difficulty/terrain ratings higher than 1.5, or that have problems reported against them (e.g., DNF logs).

Now that's confusing...

Be nice if everyone was on the same page.

- But noticed they still have that heart shown in the intro spiel, which also isn't the same anywhere else.

 

The section...With the Full-featured app as a Basic member:

View all geocaches types ("Premium Member only" caches), ...

- isn't correct either, as only premium members can view pmo caches.

Odd that they were called "advanced".

 

I didn't think one could see "greyed" caches with issues (dnf, temp disable, etc) with the intro app, believing they were only visable with the online map (from the cache page).

I thought "greyed" caches were simply the "advanced" caches.

Well, it appears someone changed "With the Geocaching Intro as a Basic Member" from premium member only to advanced.

Cool. :)

 

- but still shows "With the Full-featured app as a Basic Member" as view all geocache types ("Premium Member only" caches).

A basic member can't view pmo caches, paid app or not...
