Here are some suggestions on top of the existing text.
Remove a comma and break a long sentence in the SIMD section.
Use "least significant" instead of "last significant" when
refering to rounding and simplify a sentence in the Fortran
section.
I have not committed this yet since the sentence on rounding
really feels rather weird. Should there be something like
"whereas compatible would round..." (as opposed to "rounds")?
