Stake address CAN'T receive payments

In the stake pool course, there are contradicting statements. In here, it says

This address CAN’T receive payments

but the next page asks the students to send the funds (or payments) to the stake address.

Create a transaction with only one input and one output sending all the funds to paymentwithstake.addr

I though stake addresses CAN’T receive funds (or payments)? Or maybe in Cardano sending a transaction is different from payments? Can someone clarify please?

paymentwithstake.addr (payment address - used for send/receive ADA) is different than stake.addr (stake address - usedfor receiving rewards only)
