Is there an error in this sentence or am I misunderstanding something: "But in other languages or environments, the stack space may have a hard limit, and it may be advised to not use unbounded stack space." - I'd say it might be advised to use unbounded stack space, and the current text uses double negation.

I think you're misunderstanding, although it's not phrased super crisply. It means: "you should avoid algorithms which may attempt to use arbitrarily large amounts of stack space".
