You misundertood what a crosspost is.
From the page you linked to:
"Cross-posting is posting a Usenet article to more than one newsgroup by
writing all the newsgroup names in the article's header."
So when you tell anyone to "just send one message with
all the groups listed in the header" you are telling them to crosspost.
