You are 100% right, Steve.

And you will be even right-er if you accompany the above with a PR that
contains the lovely required diagrams ;)

Yes, this is an admission that we've been pretty lousy at building nice
user-facing explanations of all this, with illustrations when needed.  We
do hope later this year to make solid progress on our docs front, if a few
badly needed resources materialize.  In the meantime, PRs from the
community that help on this front will be welcome!
