Ah, you're right, that's a bad example. I had assumed that that kind of precondition would be explicitly mentioned so I didn't read the rest of the text as closely as I should have.
Perhaps move-assignment would have been a better example? That one at least mentions construction using an rvalue so I think that specific operation would work for move-only types.
Though now that I think about a bit more I suppose it's a bit of a moot point since the constructors all look like they require a copy-constructible T
