I think the old sentence is just misleading here, IMO it should be completely 
removed. Maybe replaced with something like: "Note that if this segment was 
created by calling `Arena#allocate`, only closing the original arena will 
deallocate this segment's backing memory region".

Suggestion:

            try (Arena otherArena = Arena.ofConfined()) {
