 # BZip3 Format Documentation
 
 BZip3 is a modern compression format designed for high compression ratios while maintaining

 ## Format Overview
 
-BZip3 uses two main formats:
+BZip3 uses two main top-level formats:
 
 1. **File Format**: The standard format used by the command-line tool
 2. **Frame Format**: Used by the high-level API functions `bz3_compress` and `bz3_decompress`.
 
-These formats are the same, except the fact that the file format also contains a block count field.
+These formats are very similar: the file format is a superset of the frame format and thus also
+contains a block count field.
