The #user_globals section contains:

the project-root rule instead:

However, I think the following would be clearer:

If there is a project-root.jam file in the project root directory, you
should use the project-root rule instead:

because it's unclear 'If there is a Jamfile' suggests ANY jam file, and
of course, there could be several higher level directories, each with
a .jam file.
