This statement misleading.
The CAN signals are hard wired from connector to connector on the Jaguar PCB. Even if the Jaguar loses power, other Jags on the network will be unaffected.
However, if the CAN cabling is
physically disconnected, then yes, every Jag after that will be unreachable.
Edit:
James beat me to it
He's also correct about the Black Jag when it is the serial bridge:
