Clarity on expiration dates

Hello,

Could someone please provide clarity on when products with expiration dates need to arrive at the fulfillment center? On seller central, they use the example below stating that the product needs to arrive 90 days before the product expiration.....

"At the time of check-in at Amazon fulfillment center, all products must have a remaining shelf life that allows sufficient time for the product to be consumed in full, plus an additional 90 days. For example, a bottle of supplements with 240 daily servings must have a remaining shelf life of 240 days and an additional 90 days, which makes 330 days."

However, in the table right after that it says that supplements need to arrive 900 days at the fulfillment center before the expiration. If they used the same product as their example above that had 240 daily servings, then wouldn't that mean that the product needs to arrive at the fulfilment center 1140 days before the expiration instead of the 330 days that is used in their example?

I am using the information in the link below for reference...
