I think Chrome still builds libc++ statically for 10.11:
https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:build/config/mac/mac_sdk.gni;l=21

Some time in the next year or two it will likely be raised, but I can't commit to a timeline. If someone lands changes that don't work on 10.11, someone from our team will try to put together a workaround patch for 10.11. The audience for this document is probably libc++ developers, so if they want to minimize the amount of post-commit code review work, it might be less work to use 10.11 here.
