CREATE ROLE
The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Description:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/16/sql-createrole.html
ROLE role_name
The ROLE clause causes one or more specified existing roles to be
automatically added as members, with the SET option enabled. This in effect
makes the new role a “group”. Roles named in this clause with role-level the
INHERIT attribute will have the INHERIT option enabled in the new
membership. New memberships will have the ADMIN option disabled.
The following sentence is badly worded:
Roles named in this clause with role-level the INHERIT attribute will have
the INHERIT option enabled in the new membership

Yep, fixed in the attached patch, applied back to PG 16 where this typo
was created. Thanks for the report.
