@fresh-cat-90827 It has been awhile since you did some work standardizing doc formatting. I'm looking at doing something similar now. So, a couple of questions: Do you remember why you indented the bullet list? I was just going through removing the indent on a backend I added. Looking at your PR however gave me pause. https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/19363/files#diff-2210ee1cf71d8969d320325104ccb332705f374a1b03b1388114f6207207d5feR222-R225 Do you remember why you switched from fenced code blocks (
Copy code
``) to indented blocks? `softwrap` actually mangles the fenced syntax, so I'm thinking of adjusting `softwrap` to better preserve them. Are there any other reasons to avoid fenced code blocks?

And when did you add
around particular words? Is there a heuristic of some kind?

So, answering my own question using that doc: • The style guide says to use
*
(2 space indent of lists). • Indentation was better for the old doc process, but fenced code blocks ````` is better with the new markdown process. • And I need to use backticks for certain things, as documented. Thus it is documented, thus shall I follow (for consistency sake).

Hey! Yes, it's been a while, but I am glad you figured it out :)
