This additional information felt necessary because not everyone knows what a `manifest` file is, and giving some background information might help solidify that understanding even more. Before understanding this background information, this felt like a completely new concept. When I just recently started reading the Rust Programming Language Book cover to cover, I noticed that quite a bit of what is given here began to click extremely well.
This additional information felt necessary because not everyone might be familiar with the term 'manifest file' in the context of a package manager. Providing some background information could help solidify that understanding even further. Before delving into this background information, the concept felt entirely new to me. It wasn't until I recently began reading The Rust Programming Language Book from cover to cover that many pieces of the puzzle began to fall into place. While there's [this source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifest_file) that provides a general description of a 'manifest file,' it doesn't delve into its connection to Rust, and the Cargo package manager. Linking everything back to Rust and Cargo seems quite fitting.
This felt necessary, as that sentence felt slightly redundant. Package manifest file was effectively defined above, so that sentence wouldn't remove much substance if it were cut out.
