I added the missing words and reworded a few lines in the attached patch.
That said, I find that the new doc is barely helpful; it describes what the

source suggest

You shouldn’t have :) apiref.rst is very outdated in d2, because the setup
function does not exist. The docs could be adjusted to document Distribution
