 `@register_serialization_type` is a macro to ensure that the string we generate
 matches exactly the expression passed as first argument, and does not change
 in unexpected ways when import/export statements are adjusted.
 
-The last three arguments are optional and can arise in any order.
 Passing a string argument will override how the type is stored as a string.
-The last two are boolean flags. When setting `uses_id` the object will be
- stored as a reference and will be referred to throughout the serialization
-sessions using a `UUID`. This should typically only be used for types that
- do not have a fixed normal form for example `PolyRing` and `MPolyRing`.

+This should typically only be used for types that do not have a fixed
+normal form for example `PolyRing` and `MPolyRing`.
+
 Using the `uses_params` flag will serialize the object with a more structured type
 description which will make the serialization more efficient see the discussion on
 `save_type_params` / `load_type_params` below.
+
+Passing a vector of symbols that correspond to attributes of type
+indicates which attributes will be serialized when using save with `with_attrs=true`.
