Ah, OK - Thanks for reminding me...
Leopard changed the way USB loads. Prior to Leopard, the boot process would reset the USB bus, precluding any boot to a USB drive - although there are Open Firmware kludges that provide USB boots, but those are not easy to keep working.
So, yes you are accurate about booting to Leopard OS through USB.
Won't work on older OS X versions, though.
