  *   @notice Child token template for ChildERC20 predicate deployments
- *   @dev All child tokens are clones of this contract. Burning and minting is controlled by respective predicates only.
+ *   @dev All child tokens are clones of this contract. Burning and minting is controlled by the ChildERC20Bridge.
+ *
+ *   @dev Upgradability:
+ *        This contract is deployed using cloneDeterministic. It is then initialized using an initialize function.
+ *        However, the contract is accessed directly, and not via a transparent upgrade proxy. As such, this contract is not upgradeable.
+ *
+ *   @dev Cloning and Initialization:
+ *        During the bootstrap process this contract is deployed on-chain.
+ *        When a token is initially mapped by the ChildERC20Bridge the deployed contract is cloned by the ChildERC20Bridge to a deterministic address.
+ *        The new ChildERC20 token is created using cloneDeterministic with the keccak256 hash of the rootToken's address as the salt.
+ *        This new ChildERC20 token is then initialized with the same name, symbol and decimals as the rootToken.
+ *        This deterministic cloning approach allows the token mapping on the root and child bridges to stay congruent.
