 ### IMPORTANT note about member coercions
 
-ShallowAttributes performs coercions only when a value is being assigned. If you mutate the value
-later on using its own interfaces then coercion won't be triggered.
+ShallowAttributes guarantee coercions only when a value is being assigned. If you mutate the value
+later on using its own interfaces then coercion may not be triggered.
+
+But ShallowAttributes uses `MutableArray < Array` with redefined mutation methods for `Array`s.
 
 Here's an example:
