He talked about such delays between words (and there were some other
delays listed which seemed to meet that description) but the above don't
appear to refer to them, the above refer to delays around chip select
which most definitely are covered with the standard delays.

If these delays are not related to chip select then the documentation
needs to be fixed to not refer to chip select.
