The C++ language has in recent years received an updated standard every three
years (C++11, C++14, etc.). For various reasons, Chromium does not immediately
allow new features on the publication of such a standard. Instead, once
-toolchain support is sufficient, a standard is declared "initially supported",
-with new language/library features banned pending discussion.
+Chromium supports the toolchain to a certain extent (e.g., build support is
+ready), a standard is declared "_initially supported_", with new
+language/library features banned pending discussion but not yet allowed.
