You have to go with what the fare rule text says and not what the little blurb underneath the flight itinerary says. It is often wrong anyway

That's what I figured....too bad they can't get the blurb right because most travelers aren't going to read all the rules, and with everything in awkward all-caps and everything, it's not easy to read. I wonder, if someone purchased a ticket like this and had a printout or screen capture of the text that it was refundable, would they refund it if they needed to? They'd probably fall back on the statement in the detailed fare rules, but it is their fault for making the error.....
