Seems you have found a glitch - will get back on this shortly.

Yes - we decided to move user groups to dashboard since user groups are an
essential part of the new sharing feature. We want all users to be able to
create groups and share reports within those groups to foster
collaboration.

Reason for not linking from user module is that currently we allow links
from the dashboard module to other modules only - this to maintain a degree
of modularity where it should be possible to leave out/plug in modules
without worrying about breaking interlinks.. Agree that it is a little bit
confusing though.
