If we could mechanically determine which entities changed from the
diff itself, we would not need to write their names in the history in
order to HAVE a list of the entities affected by each change.

There would remain the question of whether the brief descriptions of
the changes in particular entities are important to have in the
history.

Can you, can anyone, show examples where those brief descriptions are
helpful in an important way, better than the diffs?
