Ext3 as a module does not work for root partitions on systems that don't
have initrd-tools (or something similar) installed, so it's not true to
say that it works on _all_partitions.  

Nor it is gibberish or an urban legend to point this out. There are
people who want to use ext3 who have no interest in using initrd.
