So you have figured me out.
People can and will deviate from a template, as they do with smcl, so
that's no different.
I am guessing at the minimum you want:
Title
Description
Syntax
Options
Examples
Codes Attribution/References
Acknowledgements
Author identification
There is traditionally a subsection called "Options/Description"
within Syntax. I propose this be cut out because it is redundant with
Options section. I would also place a short description ahead of
options, but that's my preference.
