 The ``==`` and ``!=`` operators on arrays now always:
 
-* raise errors that occur during comparisons
+* raise errors that occur during comparisons such as when the arrays
+  have incompatible shapes (``np.array([1, 2]) == np.array([1, 2, 3])``).
 * return an array of all ``True`` or all ``False`` when values are
-  fundamentally not comparable (e.g. have different dtypes).
+  fundamentally not comparable (e.g. have different dtypes).  An example

 For a long time these gave ``DeprecationWarning`` or ``FutureWarning``.
 This mimics the Python behavior of returning ``False`` and ``True``
