XREF File - (C)
First Referencing File - (A)
Next Referencing File - (B)
In the referencing drawing (A), it doesn't make any difference. The difference is when that drawing (A) is referenced into another drawing (B). If drawing (C) is set to ATTACH in drawing (A) and (A) is referenced into drawing (B) then (C) will be seen in drawing (B). When (C) is set to OVERLAY in drawing (A), reference drawing (C) will not be seen in drawing (B).
Your wording is not very clear, but I think you've got it backwards.

If drawing (C) is set to ATTACH in drawing (A) and (A) is referenced into drawing (B) then (C) will be seen in drawing (B).

If the xref to be shared among other drawings, then the best type for it is OVERLAY.

if it is only part of the host drawing, not part of other drawings, then the best type for it is ATTACH.
Do i make mistake or not?
You are right. They are contradictory. If you read the help file, you can get AutoDesk's explanation, which will agree with what I said.

You should change the wording of your opinion or switch "overlay" and "attach". It is very misleading especially coming from an expert elite.
