Hi Stefan,
I also have a nit to pick :-) . It's not clear to me whether the clause
in the last sentence is meant to be restrictive or non-restrictive. If
restrictive, I recommend removing the comma before the word "that". If
non-restrictive, I recommend replacing the word "that" with the word
"which".
Best regards,
Larry
