Oh actually, I wanted to remove the "maybe"

I can't reconstruct what I meant to say. Reading my comment now I am confused.com about what I was trying to say (it seems like a comment written while distracted) :-/
Let's ignore it?

I've applied all the suggestions. I think they are uncontroversial typo fixes. The one I didn't apply is because I don't think it makes sense. @glemaitre maybe you can take another look and then merge? |

I'm still +1 until that this actually the policy that we use. It seems that it was questioned in this PR: #27904 (comment) I would delay a merge until we settle on the matter. |

What does this implement/fix? Explain your changes.
Adds a note in the array api documentation that documents scikit-learn policy regarding support of devices that do not support float64 precision operations. (basically stating that it favors consistency with CPU behavior at the cost of data transfers to CPU, over remaining on the device at the cost of capping compute to highest supported precision)
Discuted before with @betatim and @ogrisel , in particular during review of #27904
