I was expecting this to refer to different ways to represent the same diff. (For example, you could represent a change from `console.log(“hello”)` as `console.log('hello')` as +'-“ … +’-“ or as +'hello'-“hello”)

I don’t have a specific example in mind, but it seems reasonable that different languages could benefit from different ways of representing the same diff.
