     not explicitly covered by ``array-api-compat``, are not supported by update
     methods.
 
+    Boolean masks are supported on Dask and jitted JAX arrays exclusively
+    when `idx` has the same shape as `x` and `y` is 0-dimensional.
+    Note that this is support is not available in JAX's native
+    ``x.at[mask].set(y)``.
+
+    This pattern::
+
+        >>> mask = m(x)
+        >>> x[mask] = f(x[mask])
+
+    Can't be replaced by `at`, as it won't work on Dask and JAX inside jax.jit::
+
+        >>> mask = m(x)
+        >>> x = xpx.at(x, mask).set(f(x[mask])  # Crash on Dask and jax.jit
+
+    You should instead use::
+
+        >>> x = xp.where(m(x), f(x), x)
