FunctionDescription

simplifyChanges

Simplifies a set of changes for presentation.

This function makes changes more readable by expanding insertions and deletions that occur within the same word to cover entire words. This prevents confusing partial-word changes while maintaining accuracy.

The algorithm:

  1. Groups nearby changes (within MAX_SIMPLIFY_DISTANCE)
  2. For mixed insertions/deletions in a group, expands to word boundaries
  3. Preserves single-character replacements as-is
  4. Merges adjacent changes when appropriate
