-    /// It was expected that the marked code would emit a lint. This expectation
-    /// has not been fulfilled.
+    /// The `#[expect]` attribute can be used to create a lint expectation. The
+    /// expectation is fulfilled, if a `#[warn]` attribute at the same location
+    /// would result in a lint emission. If the expectation is unfulfilled,
+    /// because no lint was emitted, this lint will be emitted on the attribute.

-    /// The `expect` attribute can be removed if this is intended behavior otherwise
-    /// it should be investigated why the expected lint is no longer issued.

-    /// In rare cases, the expectation might be emitted at a different location than
-    /// shown in the shown code snippet. In most cases, the `#[expect]` attribute
