I would not bother reading the EU documents. They may help to inform what Member States do, but they are of little interest to the traveler.
Go to the entry requirements for the specific Member States you intend to enter and transit and read the specific requirements for those States. The definitions are particularly important as are the specifics of terms such as "quarantine" and "isolation" and those vary by State.
