(elisp) Generic Functions cl-defmethod documentation bug?

In the elisp manual node Generic Functions, the documentation for
'cl-defmethod' includes:

     ‘STRUCT-TAG’
          The argument must be an instance of a class named STRUCT-TAG
          defined with ‘cl-defstruct’ (*note (cl)Structures::), or of
          one of its parent classes.

Shouldn't 'parent classes' be 'child classes'?

The method requires an object that has all the fields defined in the given
struct; that is true of child classes, not parents.

Unless I'm missing something.
