 Get the values of `varinfo` as they would be seen in the model.
 
-If no `varinfo` is provided, then this is effectively the same as
-[`Base.rand(rng::Random.AbstractRNG, model::Model)`](@ref).
+More specifically, this method attempts to extract the realization _as seen in
+the model_. For example, `x[1] ~ truncated(Normal(); lower=0)` will result in a
+realization that is compatible with `truncated(Normal(); lower=0)` -- i.e. one
+where the value of `x[1]` is positive -- regardless of whether `varinfo` is
+working in unconstrained space.

 # Arguments
 - `model::Model`: model to extract realizations from.
 - `include_colon_eq::Bool`: whether to also include variables on the LHS of `:=`.
 - `varinfo::AbstractVarInfo`: variable information to use for the extraction.
-- `context::AbstractContext`: context to use for the extraction. If `rng` is specified, then `context`
-    will be wrapped in a [`SamplingContext`](@ref) with the provided `rng`.
+- `context::AbstractContext`: base context to use for the extraction. Defaults
+   to `DynamicPPL.DefaultContext()`.
 
 # Examples
 
 ## When `VarInfo` fails
 
-The following demonstrates a common pitfall when working with [`VarInfo`](@ref) and constrained variables.
