"Rust crates MUST be named" is more grammatical. But adding "the" later in the line is certainly better. I'm thinking, though, that this kind of commentary is mostly pointless and I should just fix it after merging. Sadly I can't just edit the PR.

I'm dumb and don't know what the plus symbols do there or why some backticked phrases have them and some don't.

so tl;dr if you use just ticks, then text inside is still processed as it would be without ticks (e.g. all macros expanded, highlights/bold/italics/etc. being rendered). The ticks with pluses mean literal text. So rule of thumb is: use ticks for simple stuff and ticks with pluses if some parts of the text contain special symbols.

you just tell me what to fix and I fix it ;) Or you can propose PR against my fork's branch.
