Review Comment:
   The last sentence is redundant though, isn't it? The docs already state:
   
   > Note that if this config is set to be greater than 1 and 
<code>enable.idempotence</code> is set to false, there is a risk of message 
re-ordering after a failed send due to retries (i.e., if retries are enabled).
   
   It's fine if we want to clarify that re-ordering is not a risk when 
`enable.idempotence` is set to true, but we should also try to keep the docs 
here concise.
   
   What about adding a brief followup in that sentence instead?
   
   > Note that if this config is set to be greater than 1 and 
<code>enable.idempotence</code> is set to false, there is a risk of message 
re-ordering after a failed send due to retries (i.e., if retries are enabled); 
ordering will be preserved if retries are disabled and/or 
<code>enable.idempotence</code> is true.
