Instead of indicating that examples show lines to change in previous
examples, present the examples as standalone items. They suffice on
their own.
In the first of these, it says to change "the second line" of a previous
example, but if it were literally changed to the provided line, it would
result in a syntax error.
In the second of these, it gives the wrong line to change.
All of this is unnecessary and probably makes the examples harder to
follow. So simplify and treat each one as a separate example.

Our documentation uses em dashes inconsistently. They are treated
inconsistently typographically too. (For example, they are sometimes
surrounded by spaces and sometimes not.) They are also often confused
with ordinary hyphens such as in the CHANGELOG, where they are
inadvertently mixed together in a single list. The difference is
not obvious in the raw markdown but is very noticeable when rendered,
appearing to be a typographical error (which it in fact is).
The em dash is never needed. There are always alternatives. Remove em
dashes entirely.

The use of dashes -- in general, but especially in our docs -- can be
problematic. It is used inconsistently and there is always another form
of punctuation that is as good or better for the situation. In an effort
to reduce the number of variations we use to display the same types of
information, remove the various uses of dashes from the documentation.
