ReliaBoost Installation - PORSCHE 944 Turbo

The ReliaBoost Controller can be installed with or without the factory cycling valve in place. This is recommended, as the factory valve in conjunction with a fully tuned controller will virtually eliminate all manner of spiking.
They aren't saying what you're saying. They're saying that it functions identically whether the CV is there or not.

There isn't even the remotest hint in what you've quoted that they are claiming the failsafe remains in place. All they are saying by that is that boost will not spike past what the MBC is set for. That is true of any good MBC regardless of the presence of the CV.

And even if they did claim that, it wouldn't make it correct. It's simple, 9th-grade physics. No amount of advertising could change that.
