-### Why do resources have both a `Cmp` method and an `IFF` (on the UID) method?
-
-The `Cmp()` methods are for determining if two resources are effectively the
-same, which is used to make graph change delta's efficient. This is when we want
-to change from the current running graph to a new graph, but preserve the common
-vertices. Since we want to make this process efficient, we only update the parts
-that are different, and leave everything else alone. This `Cmp()` method can
-tell us if two resources are the same. In case it is not obvious, `cmp` is an
-abbrev. for compare.
-
-The `IFF()` method is part of the whole UID system, which is for discerning if a
-resource meets the requirements another expects for an automatic edge. This is
-because the automatic edge system assumes a unified UID pattern to test for
-equality. In the future it might be helpful or sane to merge the two similar
-comparison functions although for now they are separate because they are

 ### What new resource primitives need writing?
 
 There are still many ideas for new resources that haven't been written yet. If
