Consider expanding on this, explaining what align-deps does in some high-level detail, using words rather than code/bullets. A few sentences to contextualize it and introduce concepts like:
- aligning dependencies is important for compatibility
- built around preset, requirements, and capabilities (and briefly what these are and how they work together)
- ships with presets that capture real-world compatibility data, and is extensible so you can add your own
- you can use the command line, or get a richer experience through package configuration
- works well in monorepos and across them

Then, below, when they read your examples and more technical info, they'll have a picture in mind of what it means and why it is the way it is.

I added some more words, but I didn't want to make it too long. I know a lot of people just want to get started without having to read too much documentation. Maybe it makes more sense to forward people to https://microsoft.github.io/rnx-kit/docs/architecture/dependency-management somewhere?

Sounds ok to me. Maybe put it at the end of the intro paragraph?
Then also update that guide so it has the right terminology :)
