 The small stack allocator is just like a stack allocator, with the only
 difference being an extremely small header size. Unlike the stack allocator,
-small stack allows out-of order freeing of memory.
+small stack allows out-of order freeing of memory, with the stipulation that
+all allocations made after the freed allocation will become invalidated upon
+following allocations as they will begin to overwrite the memory formerly used

 The memory is allocated in the backing buffer linearly, from start to end.
 Each subsequent allocation will get the next adjacent memory region.
