+// FieldVal implements optimized fixed-precision arithmetic over the secp256k1
+// finite field. This means all arithmetic is performed modulo
+// '0xfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffefffffc2f'.
+//
+// WARNING: Since it is so important for the field arithmetic to be extremely
+// fast for high performance crypto, this type does not perform any validation
+// of documented preconditions where it ordinarily would. As a result, it is
+// IMPERATIVE for callers to understand some key concepts that are described
+// below and ensure the methods are called with the necessary preconditions
+// that each method is documented with. For example, some methods only give the
+// correct result if the field value is normalized and others require the field
+// values involved to have a maximum magnitude and THERE ARE NO EXPLICIT CHECKS
+// TO ENSURE THOSE PRECONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED. This does, unfortunately, make
+// the type more difficult to use correctly and while I typically prefer to
+// ensure all state and input is valid for most code, this is a bit of an
+// exception because those extra checks really add up in what ends up being
+// critical hot paths.
+//
+// The first key concept when working with this type is normalization. In order
+// to avoid the need to propagate a ton of carries, the internal representation
+// provides additional overflow bits for each word of the overall 256-bit
+// value.  This means that there are multiple internal representations for the
+// same value and, as a result, any methods that rely on comparison of the
+// value, such as equality and oddness determination, require the caller to
+// provide a normalized value.
+//
+// The second key concept when working with this type is magnitude. As
+// previously mentioned, the internal representation provides additional
+// overflow bits which means that the more math operations that are performed
+// on the field value between normalizations, the more those overflow bits
+// accumulate. The magnitude is effectively that maximum possible number of
+// those overflow bits that could possibly be required as a result of a given
+// operation. Since there are only a limited number of overflow bits available,
+// this implies that the max possible magnitude MUST be tracked by the caller
+// and the caller MUST normalize the field value if a given operation would
+// cause the magnitude of the result to exceed the max allowed value.
+//
+// IMPORTANT: The max allowed magnitude of a field value is 64.
