UIViewController.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets doesn't document which subview it observes

Product:Documentation Product Version:iOS 9.1
Classification: Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
In practice, UIViewController.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets will only check the root subview of the view controller's .view property. (If this is a UIScrollView subclass, it will apply its behavior to the subview. Otherwise, it will not drill down the subview hierarchy any further.)

This seems like a pretty important thing to document, in the discussion of this API.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to get UIViewController.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets functionality to apply to a scroll view that is NOT the root subview of a UIVC's .view
2. Realize it isn't working
3. Check the documentation of automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets to learn about its behavior

Expected Results:
The discussion for UIViewController.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets explains that it only considers the root subview of a UIViewController's .view

Actual Results:
The discussion for UIViewController.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets does NOT explain that it only considers the root subview of a UIViewController's .view

I continue to debug it from different angles, to no success.
