Much better! And while you are at it, can you also move the
mostly useless function metadata to the end? For example:

line-beginning-position is a primitive-function in =E2=80=98C source code=
=E2=80=99.

The sentence is not grammatically correct and it is almost never
relevant where a function is defined or what "categories" it belongs
to. Or:

cl-print-object is an autoloaded byte-code-function in =E2=80=98cl-print.el=
=E2=80=99.
ad-name-p is a native-comp-function in =E2=80=98advice.el=E2=80=99.

Mostly uninteresting information. Something like

Definition: cl-print.el
Categories: autoloaded, byte-code-function

at the bottom would work better imho.
