Which version you are checking against?
Here it org-table-import docu continues:
;;;
Such files can be produced by most
spreadsheet and database applications. If no tabs (at least one per line)
are found, lines will be split on whitespace into fields.
;;;
The initial sentence is just wrong, as TAB is only one thing tried -
there are a lot more.
See docu of org-table-convert-region for details.
