 Here we list the incompatibilities that you may find when moving a program
 from @N{Lua 5.3} to @N{Lua 5.4}.
 You can avoid some incompatibilities by compiling Lua with
 appropriate options (see file @id{luaconf.h}).
 However,
 all these compatibility options will be removed in the future.
+More often than not,
+compatibility issues arise when these compatibility options

 do not imply source-code changes in a program,
