Paragraphs in [temp.point] (p1, p3, p4) are notorious in the C++ community for being long and hard to read.

This edit itemizes them, turning them from one huge prose sentence into something more organized. The actual text is almost the same 1:1, just reordered so that it makes sense as a list.

I've asked for feedback from users familiar with the C++ standard on a programming Discord:

  • One user said that this edit is "reasonable".
  • Another has said that it's "definitely" easier to read after the edit.

Also I think we can compactify the wording:

 the point of instantiation of the specialization is
-the point of instantiation of the enclosing specialization if
+that of the enclosing specialization if

Perhaps that's for another PR though.
