Most rules have a leading sentence that is an effective shortDescription. For several, we could trim some details around security justification in order to simply capture the prescriptive guidance.

The first sentence of BA2016, for example, is this:

Binaries should be marked as NX compatible in order to help prevent execution of untrusted data as code.

This could be reduced to the following rule abstract:

Binaries should be marked as NX compatible.

We changed in the sarif-sdk to not emit short descriptions if it is equal to full descriptions: microsoft/sarif-sdk#2226.
