 ## Description
 
-A side-effect of DVC is that it hides actual data paths, by effectively
-replacing files and directories with <abbr>DVC files</abbr>. So you don't see
-data files/dirs when you browse a <abbr>DVC repository</abbr> on Git hosting
-(e.g. GitHub), you just see the `dvc.yaml` and `.dvc` files. This can make it
-hard to navigate the project, for example to find files or directories for use
