GPIO-0 hardwired or pull up resistor?

Looking at the ESP8266 datasheet from Espressiff it tells how to connect GPIO-0, GPIO-2 and GPIO-15. From the table you can see that GPIO-0 level should be High at boot, for normal boot.
Hardwiring GPIO-0 to VCC won't work. This should be done with a series resistor with a value about 10k. If hardwired to GND, ESP is in FLASH mode, if hardwired to VCC, ESP is in some other not described state. If connected to a pull up resistor, ESP is in normal boot state.
Can anyone explain why hardwiring to VCC is not working? According to the datasheet this is not correct.
