I couldn't figure out the function of the --precision flag. According to the page here: https://trafilatura.readthedocs.io/en/latest/evaluation.html, the standard version is more accurate while the precision variant is more precise?

What does that mean in real practical terms?
It would have been great if the documentation can clarify how the --precision flag changes the output; showcasing with practical examples.

You can also have a look at the code to see which additional parts are discarded, and you can run the benchmark in the tests/ folder to see how extraction options compare to the rest.
