Hi Adam,
I am not sure, that this would be more clear for others, but my
suggesttion is like this:
DESCRIPTION
run-parts runs almost all executable files without
extensions, found in
directory directory.
Exact constraints are described below, other files and
directories
are silently ignored.

What wording would you add to the DESCRIPTION section of the man page
to clarify this for you?
