This already appears in the docs:
However, when one of these verbs appears inside an atomic group or in
an assertion that is true, its effect is confined to that group,
because once the group has been matched, there is never any
backtracking into it.
The "verbs" are the backtracking control verbs. Perl behaves in the same
way. I will repeat the information above in some more places in the
documentation.
