The current text hints that oblique or shear are the same. I would have written the note a bit differently along the lines of:
"Because italic versions often don't exist for Japanese fonts, and because 'italicized' vertical text behaves differently from horizontal text, it is recommended to use tts:shear for Japanese text instead of tts:fontStyle='italic' or tts:fontStyle='oblique'.

I agree with Cyril's above recommendation.

I think that's fine, but I would be interested to hear feedback from @cconcolato as well.
