I wouldn't even call it a guideline, as it is a caveat and terrible explanation of not locking others out of contention for your item.
My interpretation of what they are getting at with that statement is, "just because you made an offer, it doesn't mean someone else can't buy the item out from under you while you are negotiating, so if you want the item just put in your best offer and hopefully you will win it".
That said, it is definitely written there though, which is what I was skeptical of. Connotation is everything.
