You are correct that the note is misleading, but it is still correct.

A user can _disable_ reading MIDX files by setting core.multiPackIndex
to false. If this was in the user-facing docs, not the technical docs,
then I might push back on trying to make that distinction.

As it is, this deletion is fine.

A nit on your commit message: format commit references like this:

  18e449f86 (midx: enable core.multiPackIndex by default, 2020-09-25)
