Text replacement is treated as its own case, since it's so common in copyediting.

The sidebar shows that "35" was replaced with "over 100," rather than a deletion followed by an addition.

Diff summaries are used in source control (+added/-deleted) but rarely in writing tools.

Here's some experiments for summarizing a set of changes on a long document.

@adamwiggins this feels quite close to what we did for Upwelling. We used a ➰ symbol though instead of a delete symbol. Is there a nuance here that I'm missing?

@scottjenson Upwelling is a big influence, we're building on those ideas! We've referenced it already in the notebook, I'm sure we'll be doing so again in future posts.
