Xcode 27 release notes mention that the minimum deployment target is macOS 11.0, but Xcode itself says that only macOS 12.0 to 27.0 are supported

The release notes at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-27-release-notes mention that the minimum deployment target is macOS 11.0, but Xcode itself says that only macOS 12.0 to 27.0 are supported.

Which one is correct, Xcode or the release notes?

I created FB23514411.

The release notes have now been updated to point to this page: https://developer.apple.com/support/xcode/

It shows indeed that the minimum deployment target for macOS 27 is macOS 12-27.

But I have doubts that it's the correct information. That page also shows that the deployment target of Xcode 26 is macOS 11-26.5, but I have been using Xcode 26 with a minimum deployment target of 10.13 for many of my App Store apps. How is this possible?
