Done it, and it is leaking...
It means pretty exactly that: waterproof will not let in water.

They could use a membrane or another system that allows pressure to be
felt without having a complete hole. That would become a problem once
you start to increase the pressure. I believe the likely thing to
leak, though, are the buttons.
I don't know if waterproof is so necessary or even water or light
splash resistant. The problem here is that what's printed in the
material is a flat out lie.
