[Uri.IsBaseOf(Uri) Method (System)] Remarks not clear

[xied75]

When comparing two URIs (uri1 and uri2), uri1 is the base of uri2 if, when you ignore everything in uri2 after the last slash (/), the two URIs are identical.

Do you not also need to ignore everything from uri1 after the last slash as well?

Based on your example table, I think the pseudo code is like:

uri2.RemoveEverythingFromLastSlash().StartsWith(uri1.RemoveEverythingFromLastSlash())

Please fix this! Just found a bug in our code due to this not being understood. It should also be in the definition section, not just the notes, because this really isn't the behavior you would expect from the method name.

Edit: never mind, I misread. Regardless, I agree that the documentation is not clear, I can update that.
