1) The note was already there, but it was worded in a confusing way
(it was stated in an indirect way with "The OSM use does not limit the
size of such home").

2) I agree that it is a problem (I started this discussion because I was
affected by this confusion), but at least in this case difference in
meaning is not massive

3) So how orphanages should be tagged within social_facility scheme?

If you gave any idea how
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:social_facility&diff=1603085&oldid=1567456
may be improved (maybe describe both how this tag would be used in an
ideal world and how it is really used?) then please, make an edit.
