proper use of bsd.port.options.mk

I'm confused (yeah, I know, nothing new about that). From 
ports/Mk/bsd.port.options.mk:

# usage:
#
#       .include "bsd.port.options.mk"
#       <deal with user options>
#       .include "bsd.port.pre.mk"
#       <other work, including adjusting dependencies>
#       .include "bsd.port.post.mk"


However the ports I've looked at so far all do:

OPTIONS=	blah

.include <bsd.port.options.mk>

blah

.include <bsd.port.mk>
EOF

I assume that this method works, since it seems like so many ports use 
it. Should the notes in options.mk be updated?
