    [ms]: Fix documentation style nits.
    
    * Recast for correctness of implicit algebraic sign.
    * Drop parenthesis around phrase so sentence parses grammatically
      without it.  (If either choice of including or omitting a
      parenthesized phrase breaks the grammar of your sentence, you need
      something stronger than parentheses.)
