-* a default implementation. However it should
-* remain possible to implement `ne` separately, for
-* compatibility with floating-point NaN semantics
-* (cf. IEEE 754-2008 section 5.11).
+* This trait allows partial equality, where types can be unordered instead of strictly equal or
+* unequal. For example, with the built-in floating-point types `a == b` and `a != b` will both
+* evaluate to false if either `a` or `b` is NaN (cf. IEEE 754-2008 section 5.11).
+*
