When ordination section text is updated it would be necessary to cite key literature, where those interpretations and ways to summarize them are available. I can pick suitable refs when someone opens a PR on this for comments.
UMAP is generally not so recommended, I would leave that out entirely and focus on the methods that are commonly used & accepted in the microbiome field (e.g. PCA, PCoA/MDS, NMDS, dbRDA, possibly some other but not too many)
For dissimilarities, the following are very relevant at least: Aitchison, Jaccard, Bray-Curtis, Unifrac.
The ordination method section does only describe available methods, but does not really say the difference between them, and when to use them. (the differences in interpretation)
