Well, from a documention perspective: the KB article aims to clarify (if not correct) the OneFS 8.1. Guide's content. The KB was then incorporated into the newer Guide Dell EMC PowerScale: Network Design Considerations which has been actively maintained since then. As for the online help, it seems to be created mainly via copy and paste from version to version, with less involvement from the knowing technical writers.

"Utilizing SBR does not negate the requirement for a default gateway, as SBR in effect overrides the default gateway, but not static routes.
Static routes are an option when the cluster originates the traffic, and the route is not accessible via the default gateway. As mentioned above, static routes are prioritized over source-based routing rules."
