Description:

I guess the phrase 
because joe “inherits” admin's privileges

should be changed to
because joe was granted admin's privileges.

The point is, otherwise he inherits something that is not inheritable...

Sure it's inheritable, according to the terminology being used here
(which is baked into the CREATE/ALTER ROLE syntax, so we're not
going to change it lightly).
