A better comparison is with this one:

src/bin/pg_dump/pg_restore.c:           pg_log_error("cannot specify both --single-transaction and multiple jobs");

but it doesn't say just: "..specify both --single and --jobs", which would be
wrong in the same way, and which we already dealt with some time ago:

commit 14a4f6f3748df4ff63bb2d2d01146b2b98df20ef
Author: Alvaro Herrera <alvherre@alvh.no-ip.org>

    pg_restore -jN does not equate "multiple jobs", so partly revert the
    previous patch.
    
    Per note from Tom.
