I find this a bit ... confusing.

I think reading the other patch I know what you mean, but if I think of
this I think more of the policy declarations than the message itself,
and there we do refer to another policy?

Maybe reword a bit and say

   Note that attribute spaces do not themselves nest, nested attributes
   refer to their internal space via a ``nested-attributes`` property
   (the name of another or the same attribute space).

or something?
