Correct, the point of these patches is to make the documentation
succinct and hopefully more clear. Any writing class you take will tell
you that the less words you can use to make the point, the better.
Further, language interpretation changes over time and certain
adjectives will not have the impact they once did. As I have been
reviewing the docs, the language used although correct is often clumsy.
