Do we encourage the use of Oxford commas? Mostly a question to Sandra and
Joseph, I guess.

I am 100% in favor of Oxford commas.  :-)

I suggest "accept" instead of "can accept" and ...

... They
+can handle @code{bfloat16}, @code{_Float16}, @code{_Float32}, @code{_Float64}

... "handle" instead of "can handle" (the latter being a weaker
recommendation).

Yes.


... This external
+call is of the same format but specialised to the given floating point type.

I'm not sure I understand what "same format" means here? Do we need this
sentence, or can we actually drop it?

I think "same format" means "same arguments", but the whole sentence can be dropped.

Also, please s/floating point type/floating-point type/g per the GCC coding conventions.
