Quite. The sentence that Dave originally asked
be removed is, in some sense, irrelevant, as the
current uses of angles are turn and direction
insensitive anyway. It is therefore harmless to
remove it for those cases.
("Angle values should be normalized to the range
0-360deg by the user agent. For example, -10deg
and 350deg are equivalent.")
