Added a reference to the variant compatibility rules and linked to it from the top of the page, to start with. Then, I looked for references to
doc_c_sharp_variantthat seem like they should probably directly point at the variant compatibility section. And I added a brief description to the section to establish some context when you click a direct reference to that section.In most cases,
