- Thanks for taking the time for review, I understand what you said and I won't be able to work more on this draft as most references seems PR as clarified by @Timtrent and @Scope creep at this stage, and I have done my best. The draft can stay until some another interested editor finds neutral references. @Kinleysoda tagging you here, if you still wish to work feel free to add proper references (please try to be neutral regardless of your COI).
