There was a problem hiding this comment.
I would prefer to switch the example to use relative names.
We discussed this in GDExtension meetings before, and concluded (iirc) that relative paths are preferable since this supports moving around and renaming the gdextension without having to worry about the .gdextension file. This is also the reason we changed it in the template.
I don't think there are any advantages to using absolute paths, so I'm not sure I'd even mention them.
