ANSI NULL Default

Specify the default behavior of the Equals (=) and Not Equal To (<>) comparison operators when used with null values. Possible values are True (on) and False (off). For more information, see SET ANSI_NULL_DFLT_ON (Transact-SQL) and SET ANSI_NULL_DFLT_OFF (Transact-SQL).

Steps to Reproduce

The "ANSI_NULL_DFLT_ON" options relate to the default nullability of newly created columns not how equality comparisons involving NULL are carried out. Is this a copy/paste error or does this database option control both behaviours?
