+/// A widget that binds key combinations to specific callbacks.
 ///
-/// This is similar to the functionality provided by the [Shortcuts] widget, but
-/// instead of requiring a mapping to an [Intent], and an [Actions] widget
-/// somewhere in the widget tree to bind the [Intent] to, it just takes a set of
-/// bindings that bind the key combination directly to a [VoidCallback].
+/// This is similar to but simpler than the [Shortcuts] widget as it doesn't
+/// require [Intent]s and [Actions] widgets. Instead, it accepts a map
+/// of [ShortcutActivator]s to [VoidCallback]s.
 ///
-/// Because it is a simpler mechanism, it doesn't provide the ability to disable
-/// the callbacks, or to separate the definition of the shortcuts from the
-/// definition of the code that is triggered by them (the role that actions play
-/// in the [Shortcuts]/[Actions] system).
-///
-/// However, for some applications the complexity and flexibility of the
-/// [Shortcuts] and [Actions] mechanism is overkill, and this widget is here for
-/// those apps.
+/// Unlike [Shortcuts], this widget does not separate key bindings and their
+/// implementations. This separation allows [Shortcuts] to have key bindings
+/// that adapt to the focused context. For example, the desired action for a
+/// deletion intent may be to delete a character in a text input, or to delete
+/// a file in a file menu.
 ///
 /// [Shortcuts] and [CallbackShortcuts] can both be used in the same app. As
 /// with any key handling widget, if this widget handles a key event then
 /// widgets above it in the focus chain will not receive the event. This means
 /// that if this widget handles a key, then an ancestor [Shortcuts] widget (or
-/// any other key handling widget) will not receive that key, and similarly, if
+/// any other key handling widget) will not receive that key. Similarly, if
 /// a descendant of this widget handles the key, then the key event will not
 /// reach this widget for handling.
