This includes double-precision or smaller floating-point values and 64-bit short vector values.

Hmm, I feel removing 'for these' changes the meaning of the sentence. Then to me it now reads like short vector types would not be defined at all, and that is not the case as they would still be defined for other types.

It could be changed to '... so short vector types for these are not defined'.

Or just add 'types' to the end of the sentence... 'for these types.'
