A summary of the moving parts and how they fit together is definitely something
that is missing currently, however, there is a lot of existing documentation
for the various sub-systems. Are we just trying to point the reader to that
documentation, trying to explain things more tersely, or planning to move
some of that existing documentation into the architect-vision directory? I
really think we should avoid duplicating documentation. If existing doc tests
are too verbose, we can break them into pieces.
