Some of the most _important_, OK. But don't necessarily think you've found an easy way to fix this bug. The list would then need to be fixed to specify the most important differences. That might be easier that a comprehensive list of all differences, but it is not trivial. And it is not enough to suppose that the list as it stands now is adequate in that regard either. And no, not "most glaring", i.e., most obvious. Users need doc especially for what is not so obvious. Most important, OK. Most glaring, no.
