I think it is trying to draw attention to the fact that it does not work as one would expect. When I first looked the statement 'from package import *', I expected it to import all modules contained therein. I was grateful for the explanation of why it doesn't work like that.

I do agree though that the current text is not great; Perhaps the section should simply point out how it works and the explanation of why it must be like that moved to a footnote?
