If you only read your analysis on gitattributes documentation, it would be clear that text/-text does not have much to do with binaryness, and it also gives an authoritative advice "binary". We do not have direct control over third-party sites that give incorrect information, so people need to bug them as they find mistakes. I think ProGit actively accepts patches; I do not know about others.
