In offline discussion, we noted that the documentation on this annotation does not recommend minimizing the intrinsified section and moving whatever can be done in Java to Java; thus I prepared this documentation update, to shrink a "TLDR" essay to something concise for readers, such as pointing to that list at `vmIntrinsics.hpp` instead of "a list".
