TPS25948: TPS25948, reverse polarity capability

Part Number: TPS25948
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS25947

Hello, 

I have a question about reverse polarity capability of the TPS25948.

On the datasheet TPS25948, REVISED SEPTEMBER 2023, 

Page 1, it is mentionned  "The devices provide multiple protection modes that use few external components and are a robust defense against ... reverse polarity,..

On absolute maximum rating, the minimum for Maximum input voltage range is (VOUT – 21)

my question : if Vout is 0V, is it possible to apply -21V on VIN?

The datasheet of the TPS25947xx family produces confusion on my mind.

On page 1, it is mentionned "Withstands negative voltages up to –15 V"

And on absolute maximum rating, the minimum for Maximum input voltage range is (–15, VOUT – 21).

Regards,
