Okay, if something like this is acceptable, my high-level point will
be basically addressed.

For these I do not necessarily agree, but I can live with that if the
introduction is revised to something we discussed above.

I was probably not clear, I didn't intend to say you're ignoring this
point.  I tried to say I'm okay with the current text if others don't
see a problem in understanding it.  I don't know about others, but
since neither you nor I can suggest something specific, and since this
is quite minor, I'm fine with just forgetting the point.
