 ## Configuration
 
-`resources/` is this project's canonical asset source. `@capacitor/assets`
-prioritizes a top-level `assets/` directory over `resources/`, so a legacy
-`assets/` directory can prevent these assets from being discovered. Remove that
-directory when it is empty or obsolete.
+`resources/` is this project's canonical asset source. Pass it explicitly with
+`--assetPath resources`; `@capacitor/assets` otherwise prioritizes a top-level
+`assets/` directory when one exists, even when that directory is empty.
