+The ``[[clang::coro_await_elidable]]`` is a class attribute which can be applied
+to a coroutine return type.
+
+When a coroutine function that returns such a type calls another coroutine function,
+the compiler performs heap allocation elision when the following conditions are all met:
+- callee coroutine function returns a type that is annotated with ``[[clang::coro_await_elidable]]``.
+- In caller coroutine, the return value of the callee is a prvalue or an xvalue, and
+- The temporary expression containing the callee coroutine object is immediately co_awaited.

(why remove the "and" in the 2nd bullet point? For consistency. Because otherwise, the 1st bullet point is also a self-contained sentence with a dot at its end)
