Actually, it also says this (in the blurb for the PARTITION OF clause):
Creates the table as a <firstterm>partition</firstterm> of the specified
parent table. The table can be created either as a partition for specific
values using <literal>FOR VALUES</literal> or as a default partition
using <literal>DEFAULT</literal>. This option is not available for
hash-partitioned tables.
which I think is sufficient.
