Boeing CB statement contradictiom

Right I know I only got a B in English at school but still scratching my head on this one;

In flight, reset of a tripped circuit breaker is not recommended unless directed by a non-normal checklist. However, a tripped circuit breaker may be reset once, after a short cooling period (approximately 2 minutes), if in the judgment of the captain, the situation resulting from the circuit breaker trip has a significant adverse effect on safety

So if its not directed and you have a tripped CB, can you reset it.

And then this one;

Flight crew cycling (pulling and resetting) of a circuit breaker to clear a non-normal condition is not recommended, unless directed by a non-normal checklist.

Related am I right in thinking that the LOT 767 crew would have had an easier day if they had checked their panels?
