It doesn't seem too misleading to me. Not enough to risk backporting
changes. Also, IMO the [] should be removed from the "on level ..." part
as the "2" is part of the sentence, it's not parenthetical.

The crux of the problem is that the various vector levels are not well
documented or known about. It's not obvious at all what "level 2" is or
means. We should work on the problem from that angle, starting with
something in the vector section of the wiki. (too technical for the
vectorintro.html page I think)
