I don't think I can't change that because they are two separate bullet
items.

Yea, it was confusing. Updated:
Yes, it was confusing. I reordered it to be:
The new behavior is substantially more useful since it allows,
for example, triggers to check for data changes with <literal>IF
row(new.*) IS DISTINCT FROM row(old.*)</>. The old behavior is
still available by omitting <literal>.*</>.
I made all the other changes you listed below. If anyone has other
improvements, please let me know.
