Yes, indeed, where should this be!?

The logical place would be in the developer documentation, under
"understanding the code & getting started" [1], but that is right now just
a single paragraph.

Others should definitely correct me if wrong, but I *think* this simply
does not exist, and would suggest to move that subsection to its own
section, and make your contribution a first entry in it ("the path to
creating an array" or so). Hopefully, someone else will at some point add,
e.g., a section on how ufuncs work (I always get quite confused following
the long chain there...).  Or even something as simple as copying an array
(where transposing axes can have major impacts on speed).

All the best,

Marten
