do all kobjects in a kset need to be the same ktype?

in the current version of the header file kobject.h, there's this
comment:
/**
* struct kset - a set of kobjects of a specific type, belonging to a specific subsystem.
*
* A kset defines a group of kobjects. They can be individually
* different "types" but overall these kobjects all want to be grouped
* together and operated on in the same manner. ksets are used to
* define the attribute callbacks and other common events that happen to
* a kobject.
... snip ...
that seems contradictory. the first line suggests that all the
kobjects in a kset are of a specific type, yet that comment goes on to
suggest that they can be "individually" different types. can someone
clarify this?

p.s. and i'm thinking that the reference to a "subsystem" could be
amended since actual subsystems don't exist anymore. i may have
another question about that shortly.
