Why not use md's description instead of mdadm' content?
I think this may be better,especially for people who's native language  is not English.

"likely" is different from "certainly".  In most cases they are the same
offset.  In some cases they are different offsets.  I think "likely"
describes that well enough.

"similar" is not the same as "same", though it is similar .....

"same" means there is no difference.
"similar" means there might be a difference, but it is not a big difference.

Does that clear it up?
