Errata:

1.  Left-alignment without adjustment is Bjarni's preference, as noted
    in the quotation (not repeated here).  This paragraph underwent a
    rewrite and I didn't fix it up correctly.  Maybe "therefore" should
    thus be recast as "bafflingly".

2.  The opening parenthesis before "Specifically" is spurious.
