Could someone explain me why "Adafruit 16 Channel Servo Driver" can not be used to drive digital servos:

I also find it weird that there is no that warning if you connect it to Arduino (i.e. not RaspberryPi):Note this cannot be used for driving anything other than analog (1-2 millisecond pulse drive) servos. DC motors, AC motors and digital servos are not going to work.

I though both Analog and Digital servos are based on PWM signal and the difference is in just how it works internally. Does that mean I can not connect servos like these: http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__ ... c_58g.html ?
Q2
This tutorial http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-16-c ... i?view=all says that I need to use "Adafruit Pi Cobbler". Do I? For such simple scheme it looks like you could just connect it straight? My understanding that "Adafruit Pi Cobbler" doesn't do anything just provides convenient connection to breadboard. Am I wrong?
