In help declare it says:

In the Bash man page it says:

     Using `+' instead of `-' turns off the attribute instead, with the
exceptions that +a and +A may not be used  to  destroy  array variables and
+r will not remove the readonly attribute.

The help text needs to be updated to reflect this limitation. Something
like:

     Using `+' instead of `-' turns off the given attribute except for a, A
and r.

Thanks for the report. I'll change this after bash-5.2 is released; I'm not
making more work for the translators when we're already into release
candidates.
