-Identification string of "simulated" compiler.
+Identification string of the "simulated" compiler.
 
 Some compilers simulate other compilers to serve as drop-in
 replacements.  When CMake detects such a compiler it sets this
 variable to what would have been the :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_ID` for
 the simulated compiler.

+.. note::
+  In other words, this variable describes the ABI compatibility
+  of the generated code.
