Summarize the previous message. Use this to restate something that was too

  whole issue, pull request, or diff this is attached to.

- `l N` — write the summary as N lines.
- `p N` — write the summary as N paragraphs.

Style:

- Write flowing prose, one or two short paragraphs by default.
- Use plain English a non-expert can follow. Cover what the thing does and why
  it matters.
- Stay direct and matter-of-fact.
- Describe turbovec on its own terms.
- Keep every fact from the source, including its caveats, numbers, and
  uncertainty. Simplify the language and preserve the substance.
