“In other words, think of HVM as Rust, except replacing the borrow system by a very cheap .clone() operation that can be used and abused with no mercy. This is the secret sauce! Easy, right? Well, no. There is still a big problem to be solved: how do we incrementally clone a lambda? There is a beautiful answer to this problem that made this all possible. Let's get technical!”

Every third paragraph feels like the autogenerated flavour text gibberish of a kerbal space program mission description.

As an author of a language myself and going through the process of documenting it, let me assure you that writing technical docs is several orders of magnitude harder than writing comments on HN. And not only is it hard but it is also extremely time consuming and far less interesting than writing code too. Yet it needs to be done. To that end, the value of community support in writing documentation can never be overstated. So if you have any issues specific issues with his documentation then I'm sure the author would welcome a pull request.

I know it needs improvements, there is even a disclaimer in the top of HOW.md. I'll go over it and improve sentences like that in a future.

I enjoyed it, you can clearly see the author is excited about explaining his work.

I don’t know that I would go as far as you did, but the writing style is a little bit to hyperbolic or maybe just to rhetorical/conversational for my tastes.
