Which particular sentence are you (mis)interpreting?

The caveats about timers firing seem to be:
  - The timer won't fire if the run loop is currently called out to some other 
handler (processing some other event). This is reasonable, but might not be 
expected if someone's expecting timers to act more like signals or interrupts.
  - The timer won't fire if the run loop isn't running at all (no surprise).
  - The timer won't fire if it's scheduled in some mode that the run loop isn't 
running in.
