It seems the wording is pre-existing, but I thought operations like this are usually referred to as "total", not "perfect"? |

I've heard of "total" in the context of the mathematical terms for total ordering and such, but I have never heard it in this context (though not to say that's wrong). The point is that this is meant to be non-lossy and infallible, if there's better wording I could make this PR adjust/clarify that too, I simply used the existing wording. |
|
Yeah, using the existing wording is probably fine. The use of "perfect" just caught my attention since I usually think of "total" as in total functional programming. |

Mention intent of `From` trait in its docs This pr is a docs modification to add to the documentation of the `From` trait a note about its intent as a perfect conversion. This is already stated in the `TryFrom` docs so this is simply adding that information in a more visible way.
