Unclear/confusing documentation

Section/Topic
Where skills live
Current Documentation
The docs say:
When skills share the same name across levels, higher-priority locations win: enterprise > personal > project.
What's Wrong or Missing?
It is extremely confusing to use > (greater-than) as an arrow. The sentence seems to imply enterprise has highest, project has lowest priority/precedence.
Suggested Improvement
When skills share the same name across levels, the most specific location wins; in order of increasing precedence: enterprise (lowest) -- personal -- project (highest).
Impact
High - Prevents users from using a feature
Additional Context
It can easily be tested that project-specific has higher precedence than personal.
