Yep, I found out why this is (sheepish grin)...
The instructions I was looking at were instructions on removing the
steering wheel/steering column.  Have to remove the airbag to remove the
steering wheel :)

FWIW I disconnected that one connecter (though there is another one in
the steering column that I just left) and haven't had any problems (at
least none relating to the airbag...yet!)
