 ## Split Keyboards
 
-The above is enough for split keyboards that are symmetrical, i.e. the halves have the same number of encoders and they are on the same pins.
-If the halves are not symmetrical, you can define the pinout (and optionally, resolutions) of the right half separately.
-The left half will use the definitions above.
+If you are using different pinouts for the encoders on each half of a split keyboard, you can define the pinout (and optionally, resolutions) for the right half like this:
 
 ```c
 #define ENCODERS_PAD_A_RIGHT { encoder1a, encoder2a }
@@ -56,17 +54,6 @@ The left half will use the definitions above.

 ```
 
-If only the right half has encoders, you must still define an empty array for the left pads (and resolutions, if you define `ENCODER_RESOLUTIONS_RIGHT`).
