> Could you extend your thoughts regarding this concern that I have with respect of not including the trailing / in 3.8 but doing it in 3.9:

Pablo, Sure thing. I believe that a Sphinx extension (possibly existing sphinx-tabs as suggested by @bskinn in the Steering Council issue or one we develop/find) could give us both a "technically accurate" view and "simplified" view. I wasn't sure if this could/would be ready by 3.8. But I think that it is feasible for 3.9. If we can do it for 3.8, fantastic.

If we do the 3.8/3.9 phased approach, I definitely think the 3.8 docs need to be explicit in stating the what/why/when of the / (still searching for a cute name - right now the best I have is "twig" from another name, virgule, for slash and its Latin derivation). Ultimately, 3.9 should either by Sphinx extension or edit contain the "technically accurate" version.
