In the glossary section it states:
<doc>
nested scope
The ability to refer to a variable in an enclosing definition. For
instance, a function defined inside another function can refer to
variables in the outer function. Note that nested scopes work only for
reference and not for assignment which will always write to the
innermost scope. In contrast, local variables both read and write in the
innermost scope. Likewise, global variables read and write to the global
namespace.

Doesn't the nonlocal keyword make variables in outer scopes writable?
Yes. I'd submit a doc bug.
Bug submitted.
