-### Caveats
+### Feature combinations
 
-Features, which are a form of conditional compilation, require an exponential number of configurations and test cases to be 100% covered. By default, testing, linting, Miri, docs and others will only run on the default set of features.
+Because features are a form of conditional compilation, they require an exponential number of configurations and test cases to be 100% covered. By default, tests, docs, and other tooling such as [Clippy](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy) will only run with the default set of features.
 
-There are certain tools like [cargo-hack](https://github.com/taiki-e/cargo-hack) and [cargo-all-features](https://github.com/frewsxcv/cargo-all-features) that allow you to test all combinations of features which can help reduce the amount of configuraton needed.
+We encourage you to consider your strategy and tooling in regards to different feature combinations - Every project will have different requirements in conjunction with time, resources, and the cost-benefit of covering specific scenarios. Common configurations may be with / without default features, specific combinations of features, or all combinations of features.
