I am not sure that neither mentioning nor recommending SHOW for this
area is a good idea, the point being to encourage its use before the
server is running as we don't want to allocate anything when tuning
it.

Point taken that the current wording can be confusing because of the
"*must* be shut down".  How about doing a simpler s/must/should/ for a
softer wording?
