I don't think it's a good idea to remove the tip about increasing the
deblocking filter when the source suffer from artifacts (unless it's
planned to move this tip to the XML doc).
I'd prefer:

-For encodes that are intended to be reasonably high quality, you might
-want to turn it down a little bit.
+The default behavior of the filter almost always achieves optimal quality,
+so it is best to either leave it alone, or make only small adjustments
 However, if your source material already has some blocking or noise
 which you would like to remove, or if it is animation, it may be a good
 idea to turn it up a little bit.

I'd still like to have Loren's opinion about this.
