We'll just reserve the rest of the 7xx series for you ;)

I've committed most of the suggestions.. I think the remaining ones are just adding line breaks between entries in the numbered list? If y'all think that makes it clearer I'll add them, but the suggestions only did some of them, so I think it makes sense to do either some of them or none of them? Otherwise it feels weird to me to have half of them with extra line breaks, and half not.

WDYT?

Yeah, currently only some of them have breaks so looks uneven:

My suggestions were to add the missing ones between 3-4 and 5-6, so they're all consistent. Either that, or remove them from the others. (It's a big list so I favour extra space.)

Fixed the merge conflict, but there's a lot of comments above to address.
