Wait, what?

United says: "if you checked baggage on your original flight, you will need to complete any changes at least 60 minutes before your new flight’s departure to allow time for us to move your baggage to the new flight." https://www.united.com/ual/en/us/fly...ay-change.html

The wiki for this thread says:

""
Change at origin airport after tendering a checked bag: A - 60 minutes prior to both flights required
Change at layover airport when a bag has been checked: A - 60 minutes prior to both flights required
