Our 1970s house has a light in the utility room that uses the hot and neutral as the switch wires. The hot goes to the switch on the black and comes back on the white wire. Totally not to code but...

I like how it calls out that a neutral is required, when literally every residential wiring has a neutral. edit: Unless they mean some mystery 4th wire, as indicated in the product pics. Then I...
