The `restriction` group contains many lints which are not about necessarily “bad” things, but style choices — perhaps even style choices which contradict conventional Rust style — or are otherwise very situational. This results in silly wording like “Why is this bad? It isn't, but ...”, which I’ve seen confuse a newcomer at least once. To improve this situation, this commit replaces the “Why is this bad?” section heading with “Why restrict this?”, for most, but not all, restriction lints. I left alone the ones whose placement in the restriction group is more incidental. In order to make this make sense, I had to remove the “It isn't, but” texts from the contents of the sections. Sometimes further changes were needed, or there were obvious fixes to make, and I went ahead and made those changes without attempting to split them into another commit, even though many of them are not strictly necessary for the “Why restrict this?” project.

/// ### What it does
|
|
/// Checks for types named `Error` that implement `Error`.
|
|
///
|
|
/// ### Why restrict this?
|
|
/// It can become confusing when a codebase has 20 types all named `Error`, requiring either
|
|
/// aliasing them in the `use` statement or qualifying them like `my_module::Error`. This
|
|
/// hinders comprehension, as it requires you to memorize every variation of importing `Error`
|
|
/// used across a codebase.
|
|
///
|
|
/// ### Example
|
|
/// ```rust,ignore
|
|
/// #[derive(Debug)]
|
|
/// pub enum Error { ... }
|
|
///
|
|
/// impl std::fmt::Display for Error { ... }
|
|
///
|
|
/// impl std::error::Error for Error { ... }

/// ```
