Now that many sections use "annotation" to mean a specific core-language construct, we should avoid using "annotation" to mean anything but that construct, i.e. stop using it to mean "code comment." (There will be an NB comment to this effect.)

Drive-by hyphenate "freestanding-deleted function". Not all freestanding-deleted functions are freestanding functions, and not all freestanding-deleted functions are deleted functions; hyphenating helps the reader understand that this is a term of art that cannot meaningfully be broken down into its component notions.

Comment thread source/concepts.tex Outdated

Some of these changes have been implemented by #8373 as requested by https://github.com/cplusplus/nbballot/issues/707

Unfortunately, we have a merge conflict now.

@eisenwave: "Oops." Note that I was the one who submitted both the NB comment and this PR, and this PR has been sitting approved for two months now — I assume the intent was to use this PR to resolve the matching NB comment. So I suggest the simplest fix is to revert your patch first, and then merge this one, and then mark the NB comment as resolved.

However, if you prefer not to revert your patch, then I can rebase this one after this week is over.
