That's true, but this was a special circumstance where disabling swap was creating very bad system behavior.

  pre 3.5 it doesn't actually disable swap, it will only use it when it's about to OOM. post 3.5 it does actually hard-disable, but setting swappiness to 1 gives the same behaviour as swappiness=0 in < 3.5
