Those explanations are now sized from both the width and the height of your terminal:\n\n- It sets aside up to 12 lines, based on the terminal's height.\n\n- It shares those lines between the consent, streak and ask-rule sections.\n\n- It cuts the text short only when it would not fit.\n\nBefore, each section got a fixed number of lines and only the width was considered.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe permission dialog may fit better in a short terminal window.\n\n- Area: Permissions\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
