+ * \brief An object that refers to schedulable elements (block/for-loop) in 
TensorIR, aka "sref".
+ *
+ * Glossary
+ * - Block sref: An StmtSRef that points to a TensorIR block.
+ * - Loop sref: An StmtSRef that points to a TensorIR for loop.
+ * - Parent sref: The parent sref of an sref is the block/loop sref that 
points to its closest
+ * schedulable statement of its ancestors on the TensorIR AST.
+ * - Root sref: Sref to the root block. Every sref has exactly one parent sref 
except for root sref.
+ * - Sref tree: The parent-children-relationship of srefs that forms a tree, 
uniquely determined by

Review comment:
       "sref" is a term we made up to represent our particular objects that 
reference the AST statements, and they have specific properties (like they 
could form a tree, a block scope, etc) and are used specifically in internal 
state manipulation in scheduling, so I think "sref" is appropriate in this 
case. What do you think?
