Description

The sentence:
`Provides the ability to create events for event tracing for Windows (ETW).`
doesn't make sense in the abstract definition .NET Standard 2.0. The same is with `Starting with .NET Framework 4.6, ...`
It seems a copy/paste wording problem. The documentation should be rewritten to avoid confusion.
There is a related discussion:

Hope it helps.
