Vent Vehicle manual disallows use of boosters?!

After recently re-reading my vehicle (02 Civic) owners manual, I found a few interesting tidbits. It says children should RF to "about" one year *sigh* wish that one were surprising. It says children should remain harnessed to seat limits though :thumbsup: But it says nothing at all about using boosters for the older child. In fact, it seems to disallow their use (page 20):
Devices intended to improve
occupant comfort or reposition the
shoulder part of a seat belt can
severely compromise the
protective capability of the seat
belt and increase the chance of
serious injury in a crash.

That's not talking about boosters. It's talking about those ridiculous aftermarket belt positioners that you see in stores that pull the lap belt portion right up over the rider's tummy.
