-.. note:: Because our ``development.ini`` has a ``pyramid.reload_templates =
-   true`` directive indicating that templates should be reloaded when
-   they change, you won't need to restart the application server to
-   see changes you make to templates.  During development, this is
-   handy.  If this directive had been ``false`` (or if the directive
-   did not exist), you would need to restart the application server
-   for each template change.  For production applications, you should
-   set your project's ``pyramid.reload_templates`` to ``false`` to increase
-   the speed at which templates may be rendered.
+.. note:: ``development.ini`` has a setting that controls how templates are

+   - A setting of ``True`` (as in the scaffold ``development.ini``)

+     is convenient while developing but slows template rendering speed.

+   - A setting of ``False`` (the default) requires a server restart to
+     integrate template changes.  Production applications should set
