This is actually correct as-is. Given that it's documentation on the Iter type itself, there shouldn't be any confusion here. Likewise throughout.

This is certainly correct, but later prose talks about calling the X method "of the iterator", without an iterator having been mentioned before. If you think it is less clear without struct, perhaps we can use something like "the Iter struct (which is an iterator)" or "the Iter struct (which implements the Iterator trait)"? What do you think?

AFAICT this is just normal borrowing rules and does not seem especially relevant here.

I've removed the cryptic message about not being able to call `&mut self` methods while retaining a shared borrow of the iterator, such as `as_slice` produces. This is just normal borrowing rules and does not seem especially relevant here. I can whip up a replacement if someone thinks it has value.
