Please note that wiki also says:

<quote>
Directives not set are inherited from the outer level. Directives 
set in current level clear any previously defined directives for 
the current level.

Note that this is standard behaviour for all array-type directives 
(fastcgi_param, proxy_set_header, access_log, error_log and so on).
