-        WebKit maintains a cache of code point to glyph mapping for a particular font. One of
-        the ways WebKit populates this cache is to create a string holding consecutive code
-        points, create a CTLineRef from the string, and use CTRunGetGlyphs() with
-        CTRunGetStringIndices() to map from the code points to the glyphs. This approach is
-        fundamentally incorrect, as it will combine consecutive code points together in the
-        string if possible to produce a glyph.

-        The only way WebKit will ever trigger this code path is if we are inspecting a
-        composite font, first introduced in [1]. These composite fonts are extremely rare
+        Composite fonts were first introduced in [1]. These composite fonts are extremely rare
         because:
