+//! Traits used to represent [lattices] for use as the domain of a dataflow analysis.
+//!
+//! # Overview
+//!
+//! The most common lattice is a powerset of some set `S`, ordered by [set inclusion]. The [Hasse
+//! diagram] for the powerset of a set with two elements (`X` and `Y`) is shown below. Note that
+//! distinct elements at the same height in a Hasse diagram (e.g. `{X}` and `{Y}`) are
+//! *incomparable*, not equal.
+//!
+//! ```text
+//!      {X, Y}    <- top
+//!       /  \
+//!    {X}    {Y}
+//!       \  /
+//!        {}      <- bottom
+//!
+//! ```
+//!
+//! The defining characteristic of a lattice—the one that differentiates it from a [partially
+//! ordered set][poset]—is the existence of a *unique* least upper and greatest lower bound for
+//! every pair of elements. The lattice join operator (`∨`) returns the least upper bound, and the
+//! lattice meet operator (`∧`) returns the greatest lower bound. Types that implement one operator
+//! but not the other are known as semilattices. Dataflow analysis only uses the join operator and
+//! will work with any join-semilattice, but both should be specified when possible.
+//!
+//! ## `PartialOrd`
+//!
+//! Given that they represent partially ordered sets, you may be surprised that [`JoinSemiLattice`]
+//! and [`MeetSemiLattice`] do not have [`PartialOrd`][std::cmp::PartialOrd] as a supertrait. This
+//! is because most standard library types use lexicographic ordering instead of set inclusion for
+//! their `PartialOrd` impl. Since we do not actually need to compare lattice elements to run a
+//! dataflow analysis, there's no need for a newtype wrapper with a custom `PartialOrd` impl. The
+//! only benefit would be the ability to check that the least upper (or greatest lower) bound
+//! returned by the lattice join (or meet) operator was in fact greater (or lower) than the inputs.
