Well, IIRC, in author-year styles \autocite is equivalent to \parencite. 
I think, what the manual talks about is not that \autocite wouldn't be 
appropriate for author-year styles, but rather that relying /solely/ on 
\autocite doesn't give authors the flexibility they might want in these 
styles, like when you want something like in your example:
```
According to \textcite[]{Jones1998} , ``students often had difficulty 
using APA
style, especially when it was their first time'' 
\pnotecite[][199]{Jones1998}.
```

So, I think \autocite is the better choice.
