If it's not a bug then please clearly note so in the changelog and
explain why the change results in better code.

If it's fixing a bug/misfeature then please fix the changelog to
conform to the standard changelog style:

- first describe the symptoms of the bug - how does a user notice?

- then describe how the code behaves today and how that is causing the bug

- and then only describe how it's fixed.

Thanks,

Ingo
