Maybe

  If there are fewer than 3 adjacent lines of
  moved code, they are skipped.

My issue with "skipped" is that it's not clear what exactly is
skipped. Move detection? Inclusion in the diff? Something else?
That's why I tried to add the "excluded from move detection" to
make it clear that the change is still shown to the user, just
not handled by move detection and using the usual diff colors.

In your example above, what exactly is "omitted"? The complete
hunk from the output or the special coloring? That's what
confuses me and what might confuse a future reader of the
documentation.
