 Thin pointers are "simple" pointers: they are purely a reference to a memory
 address.
 
-Fat pointers are pointers referencing Dynamically Sized Types (also called DST).
-DST don't have a statically known size, therefore they can only exist behind
-some kind of pointers that contain additional information. Slices and trait
-objects are DSTs. In the case of slices, the additional information the fat
-pointer holds is their size.
+Fat pointers are pointers referencing Dynamically Sized Types (also called

 To fix this error, don't try to cast directly between thin and fat pointers.
