The first sentence of this paragraph tripped me up for a minute when reading today. At first pass, I had trouble parsing it because I was wondering a couple of things:

  • Suggestions from whom?
  • How/why would I use 'static lifetimes in error messages?

This is my attempt to make this paragraph more readable--hopefully without being too verbose.

I only changed the first sentence and the first word of the second sentence.

Thanks! See also #4067. I’ll be trying to integrate these two PRs together (possibly taking ideas from both and rewriting them!), because there’s clearly a bit of a phrasing issue here, and I agree that we should fix it!
