+# * Options that are incompatible with other options, or more generally that
+#   interact with other parts of the code in such a way that a bulk enabling
+#   is not a good way to test them.
+# * Options that remove features.
 #
+# The baremetal configuration excludes options that require a library or
+# operating system feature that is typically not present on bare metal
+# systems. Features that are excluded from "full" won't be in "baremetal"
