I am genuinely intrigued by this, and not messing around, on what is that based?
I have posted this paper (and of course I got it from someone else). But others (I think 41 Banks) have pointed out that this page was amended, given the amendment no, likely in 1941 IIRC. So in short the +12 limit only appears in later manuals, but the 1940 ones.

The unamended (likely first or early) version from July 1940 shows the limit as +9 for 5 min Combat (+12 is enabled, but only for take off for a limited time/altitude).
