-/// Verify that `subByteVecType` and `dstType` are aligned. Alignment
-/// means that:
-///   1. The `dstType` element type is a multiple of the
-///   `srcVectorOfSubByteType` element type (e.g. i4 vs i8 is OK, but i3 vs i8
-///   is not supported). Let this multiple be `N`.
-///   2. The number of the (trailing) elements in `srcVectorOfSubByteType` is a
-///   multiple of `N` from 1. (e.g., when targetting i8, 2xi4 is OK, but 3xi4 is
-///   not supported).
+/// Verify that `subByteVecTy` (vector) and `containerTy` (scalar) are aligned.
+///
+/// Alignment means that `subByteVecTy` can be packed into a vector of
+/// `containerTy` elements. More specifically:
+///   1. The bit-width of `containerTy` is a multiple of the
+///      bit-width of `subByteVecTy` elements. For example, for `i4` and `i16`
+///      this multiple is 4.
+///   2. The multiple from 1. above divides evenly the number of the (trailing)
+///      elements in `subByteVecTy`.
+///
+/// EXAMPLE 1:
+///   `subByteVecTy = vector<2xi4>`, and
+///   `containerTy = i16`
+///
+/// 2 divides evenly 4 ( = 16 / 4), hence both conditions are _met_.
+///
+/// EXAMPLE 2:
+///   `subByteVecTy = vector<3xi4>`, and
+///   `containerTy = i16`
+///
+/// 3 _does not_ divide evenly 4 (= 16/4), hence the conditions are _not met_.
+///
+/// EXAMPLE 3:
+///   `subByteVecTy = vector<3xi3>`, and
+///   `containerTy = i16`
+///
+/// 16 _is not_ a multiple of 3, hence the conditions are _not met_.
 ///
 /// NOTE: This method assumes that common conversion preconditions are met. In
-/// particular, the element type of `dstType` is assumed to be a multi-byte
-/// type (e.g. i8, i16, i32).
+/// particular, `containerTy` is assumed to be a
+/// multi-byte scalar type (e.g., i8, i16, i32).
