I added the missing words and reworded a few lines in the attached patch.

That said, I find that the new doc is barely helpful; it describes what the code does, but does not explain why one would want to use it.  Comments in the source suggest it’s a hack to support some corner case.  This is still obscure to me after reading about it and looking at the code :(
