-(** Ambient context.
-
-    The ambient context, like the Matrix, is everywhere around you.
-
-    It is responsible for keeping track of that context in a manner that's
-    consistent with the program's choice of control flow paradigm:
-
-    - for synchronous/threaded/direct style code, {b TLS} ("thread local
-      storage") keeps track of a global variable per thread. Each thread has its
-      own copy of the variable and updates it independently of other threads.
-
-    - for Lwt, any ['a Lwt.t] created inside the [with_binding k v (fun _ -> …)]
-      will inherit the [k := v] assignment.
-
-    - for Eio, fibers created inside [with_binding k v (fun () -> …)] will
-      inherit the [k := v] assignment. This is consistent with the structured
-      concurrency approach of Eio.
-
-    The only data stored by this storage is a {!Hmap.t}, ie a heterogeneous map.
-    Various users (libraries, user code, etc.) can create their own {!key} to
-    store what they are interested in, without affecting other parts of the
-    storage. *)
