-/// Since Xcode 15 Apple's LD requires object files to contain information about what they were
-/// built for (LC_BUILD_VERSION): the platform (macOS/watchOS etc), minimum OS version, and SDK
-/// version. This returns a `MachOBuildVersion` for the target.
+/// Mach-O files contain information about:
+/// - The platform/OS they were built for (macOS/watchOS/Mac Catalyst/iOS simulator etc).
+/// - The minimum OS version / deployment target.
+/// - The version of the SDK they were targetting.
+///
+/// In the past, this was accomplished using the LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX, LC_VERSION_MIN_IPHONEOS,
+/// LC_VERSION_MIN_TVOS or LC_VERSION_MIN_WATCHOS load commands, which each contain information
+/// about the deployment target and SDK version, and implicitly, by their presence, which OS they
+/// target. Simulator targets were determined if the architecture was x86_64, but there was e.g. a
+/// LC_VERSION_MIN_IPHONEOS present.
+///
+/// This is of course brittle and limited, so modern tooling emit the LC_BUILD_VERSION load
+/// command (which contains all three pieces of information in one) when the deployment target is
+/// high enough, or the target is something that wouldn't be encodable with the old load commands
+/// (such as Mac Catalyst, or Aarch64 iOS simulator).
+///
+/// Since Xcode 15, Apple's LD apparently requires object files to use this load command, so this
+/// returns the `MachOBuildVersion` for the target to do so.
