The codex does not say that. It also wouldn't be true in any case. The
only reason the @uses would be stale is if there were modifications to the
code without updating the inline documentation.
Using a separate application takes away from the reasons behind
phpdocumentor sites. I would say that only functions that provide more
information on the usage of the function should be linked with {{{@uses}}}
as some functions and methods are helpers for other functions.
