(which a *user* quite likely would end up searching for in the document,
and fail to find any "stop" keyword, thus not getting to the relevant
reset parameter section in time).
Quite likely I failed to properly word things to make that obvious,
in my quickly carved mail.


To clarify intent behind these docs, I would thus propose to have
the sentence improved to something quite similar to

the original HEAD (i.e., to finish - "stop" a started - bisect),
