Hey there @LordPillager - thanks for flagging this; I'll let the team know.
This is a recent implementation (as of March, 2019) and some of our Help Center articles might have not been updated to reflect these changes yet. Therefore, I appreciate your feedback about this as you're helping - not only us, to improve, but other users as well as they might stumble upon the same issue.
Could you just clarify to which exact Help Center article you were referring to in order to complete my report?
Note that the relevant article is the following:
https://www.dropbox.com/help/account/computer-limit
As you probably figured out by now, to add a new device, you can unlink some of your current devices. Unlinking a device from your Dropbox account means that Dropbox will no longer sync changes to the files and folders in the Dropbox folder on that computer, tablet or mobile. Basically Dropbox is turned off for that device. Rest assured that no files or folders will be deleted from your Dropbox account.
Once you have two devices or less linked to your Dropbox account, you can then link your new device to your Dropbox account.
Additionally, you can upgrade your account to a plan which allows you to keep all your linked devices. You can see our plan's page for more information:
https://www.dropbox.com/plans
I hope this information helps to some extent and I'll wait for your next response to form a full report about the Help Center article you mentioned.
Thanks for your diligence and until we speak again, have a lovely day ahead!
