Definition of branch?

Sorry to spam with such a simple question ...
The User's Guide says: "A branch is an ordered set of revisions" and
"Branches may split apart and be merged back together". From this, I
take the definition of a branch to be a linear timeline of revisions
that may or may not have merges to/from other branches which also have
their own linear timeline.
However, it then also says: "A branch might have other lines of
development..." which makes a branch sound more like an entire tree.
Trying to reconcile these two statements.
TIA,
Tim
