-# But First, Semantics: Upsert versus Patch
+# Emitting Patch Updates to DataHub
 
 ## Why Would You Use Patch
 
-By default, most of the SDK tutorials and API-s involve applying full upserts at the aspect level. This means that typically, when you want to change one field within an aspect without modifying others, you need to do a read-modify-write to not overwrite existing fields.
-To support these scenarios, DataHub supports PATCH based operations so that targeted changes to single fields or values within arrays of fields are possible without impacting other existing metadata.
+By default, most of the SDK tutorials and APIs involve applying full upserts at the aspect level, e.g. replacing the aspect entirely. 
+This means that when you want to change even a single field within an aspect without modifying others, you need to do a read-modify-write to avoid overwriting existing fields.
+To support these scenarios, DataHub supports `PATCH` operations to perform targeted changes for individual fields or values within arrays of fields are possible without impacting other existing metadata.
 
 :::note
 
-Currently, PATCH support is only available for a selected set of aspects, so before pinning your hopes on using PATCH as a way to make modifications to aspect values, confirm whether your aspect supports PATCH semantics. The complete list of Aspects that are supported are maintained [here](https://github.com/datahub-project/datahub/blob/9588440549f3d99965085e97b214a7dabc181ed2/entity-registry/src/main/java/com/linkedin/metadata/models/registry/template/AspectTemplateEngine.java#L24). In the near future, we do have plans to automatically support PATCH semantics for aspects by default.

-## How Patch works
+## Advanced: How Patch works
 
 To understand how patching works, it's important to understand a bit about our [models](../what/aspect.md). Entities are comprised of Aspects
 which can be reasoned about as JSON representations of the object models. To be able to patch these we utilize [JsonPatch](https://jsonpatch.com/). The components of a JSON Patch are the path, operation, and value.
@@ -73,9 +124,6 @@ which can be reasoned about as JSON representations of the object models. To be
 The JSON path refers to a value within the schema. This can be a single field or can be an entire object reference depending on what the path is.
 For our patches we are primarily targeting single fields or even single array elements within a field. To be able to target array elements by id, we go through a translation process
 of the schema to transform arrays into maps. This allows a path to reference a particular array element by key rather than by index, for example a specific tag urn being added to a dataset.
-This is important to note that for some fields in our schema that are arrays which do not necessarily restrict uniqueness, this puts a uniqueness constraint on the key.
-The key for objects stored in arrays is determined manually by examining the schema and a long term goal is to make these keys annotation driven to reduce the amount of code needed to support
-additional aspects to be patched. There is a generic patch endpoint, but it requires any array field keys to be specified at request time, putting a lot of burden on the API user.

 Value is the actual information that will be stored at a path. If the path references an object then this will include the JSON key value pairs for that object.
