there is a lot of whitespace in the c++ code that looks akward given the style we use in the rest of the documentation.

Document the extra constructor for UniqueTokenScope==Global as:

UniqueToken(size_type max_size, execution_space space = execution_space()) requires(TokenScope == Global);

Looking at the implementation I want to suggest some changes. But someone should verify.

UniqueToken(size_type max_size, execution_space space = execution_space()) requires(TokenScope == Global);

Shouldn't it be TokenScope == Instance for the ctor to take a max_size?

looks good to me

In a parallel region, before the main computation, a pool of ``UniqueToken`` (integer) ID is generated, and each ID is released following iteration.

.. warning::
``UniqueToken <ExecutionSpace> token`` *can* be called inside a parallel region, *but* must be released at the end of *each* iteration.

Should we be saying "work item" instead of "iteration"?

Either formulation is fine : " ... each iterate" or " ... each work item"

* ``UniqueTokenScope``: defaults to ``Instance``, and every instance is independent of another. In contrast, ``Global`` uses one set of unique IDs for all instances.

each ID is released following iteration.

I don't quite understand what this means.

I guess she meant to say that the token is released at the end of the iteration

I am not following what is the difference between the two.
Should that be interpreted as, regardless of whether TokenScope is instance or global, the constructor takes an integer argument and optionally an execution space trailing argument that defaults to the default exec space instance?

I think are right, the constructor that takes a max_size will instantiate UniqueToken<ExecutionSpace,UniqueTokenScope::Instance>.
The one with only the ExecutionSpace as argument does not restrict the scope.

yes -- the main distinction is scope (instance or global).

Did we forget to define size_type?

.. code-block:: cpp

size_type size()
// Returns the size of the token pool

There is a dedicated syntax for return

// Returns the size of the token pool
:returns: the size of the token pool

:return: doesn't work (as a Sphinx directive) with .. code-block:: cpp or .. cpp:function::

Here, code-block:: cpp (vs. cpp:function::) is being used (i.e., cpp:function requires a conventional function signature (vs. method on a class).

good catch by @dalg24, the ctor description is not correct

I would prefer if we kept the warning and ditched the note. The warning was very explicit about what users have to adhere to. The note makes it sound optional in my opinion
