I ended up going with:
However, this consideration only applies when
<xref linkend="guc-wal-level"/> is <literal>minimal</literal> for
non-partitioned tables as all commands must write WAL otherwise.

I've changed this to:
Rows will be frozen only if the table being loaded has been created
or truncated in the current subtransaction, there are no cursors
open and there are no older snapshots held by this transaction. It is
currently not possible to perform a <command>COPY FREEZE</command> on
a partitioned table.
Which is just the original text with the new sentence tagged onto the end.

Thanks for looking at this. I've attached an updated patch.
