PBM can delete the recent/last backup with PITR enabled

Description

The DOC mentions the following:

4.Starting with version 2.4.0, you can delete any backup snapshot (except the most recent one with point-in-time recovery enabled) regardless the point-in-time recovery slices deriving from it. Such slices are then marked as “no base backup” in the pbm status output.

 

except the most recent one with point-in-time recovery enabled

As per our discussions with , PBM can delete the recent/last backup if there is another one and PITR contains all oplog between it and now. The documents mislead this as not able to delete the latest backup one. Can we check and change this wordings?
