You know, I can selectively read too.
The next sentences are:
"It is recommended that you do not directly call the functions in the flat API.
Whenever you make calls to GDI+, you should do so by calling the methods and
functions provided by the C++ wrappers. Microsoft Product Support Services will
not provide support for code that calls the flat API directly."

So, it's a Microsoft *recommendation*, not a technical limitation, nevertheless
the original upstream seen it the *other* way around.
