Trim verbose comments to concise, self-contained notes

Cut restated "what", domain-glossary framing, cross-file consumption
narration, and against-alternative justification from in-file comments;
keep only non-obvious "why" and load-bearing pointers. Drop the
`generateCompletions` line (a no-op restatement of the upstream default)
and its comment.
