Inconsistency of manual pages for Multicast routing

On page https://docs.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/18.5/Help/en-us/webhelp/onlinehelp/AdministratorHelp/Routing/StaticRouting/NetworkMulticastRouteAdd/index.html

it states to "Specify the multicast IPv4 address from the following address range: 224.0.2.0 to 239.255.255.255." but on the page https://docs.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/18.5/Help/en-us/webhelp/onlinehelp/CommandLineHelp/RouteConfiguration/MulticastRouting/MulticastRoutingConfigure/index.html which is the same topic addresses from the command line it states to that the destination IP should be a "Class D IP address (224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255)."

Which is it? It makes a huge difference as for example 224.0.0.251, which is the mDNS address works under one, but not the other specification.
