Expressions were explained in the previous sub-sections, so I don't think we need to add a cross-reference here. (In any case, having cross-references in a Summary is IME bad style, since it means we failed to describe something in the parts being summarized. A summary should never say anything that wasn't already said before.) > (I will re-open this bug number for future opportunities to link eintr, elisp after it is closed.) Please don't, as each issue should be a separate bug report.
