-/// **What it does:** Checks for using `fold` to implement `any`.
+/// **What it does:** Checks for using `fold` when a more succint alternative exists.
+/// Specifically, this checks for `fold`s which could be replaced by `any`, `all`,
+/// `sum` or `product`.
 ///
 /// **Why is this bad?** Readability.
 ///
-/// **Known problems:** Changes semantics - the suggested replacement is short-circuiting.
+/// **Known problems:** None.
 ///
 /// **Example:**
 /// ```rust
 /// let _ = (0..3).fold(false, |acc, x| acc || x > 2);
 /// ```
+/// This could be written as:
+/// ```rust
+/// let _ = (0..3).any(|x| x > 2);
+/// ```
