The pyogrio introduction was slightly dated in some locations, so I started off with doing some minor updates.

However, I got a bit carried away with making small changes here and there... I also changed the order of some blocks of text, which doesn't help to see the exact changes applied :-(.

For the "vectorized", not sure why this term was used, but I don't think it is really relevant for what happens in pyogrio, or possibly I'm just wrong on that?

Anyway, if it's not an improvement, just say so, a PR is easy to delete again ;-) (or rather, to close without merging).

Re: "vectorized" - that was originally added to distinguish it from Fiona, which one could describe as having a more iterative API: you loop over individual features in the Python API. Whereas in pyogrio, the looping happens in compiled code, so it presents results as arrays (vectors) of features. But it was a shorthand reference and not particularly clear, so it is fine for that to go away.
