Kinked column - BG of 2 Knights

FOG Version 2.0

Battle Groups section - page 2:
In the exceptions for a kinked column, Battle Groups of 2 cavalry, cataphracts or heavy foot are mentioned. A BG of 2 knights is not. Is there any reason for this, or was it simply overlooked?

Came across this in a WoTR game.

In the cases listed in the rules, the entire file fights as a single formation. Knights only count the front rank in combat, so they are not exempted from the kinking rule.
