The original phrasing of this paragraph made at least one person stumble over the word "from" (thinking that it was a typo and "from" was intended), and other readers chimed in, agreeing that it was confusing: https://public-inbox.org/git/0102016b8d597569-c1f6cfdc-cb45-4428-8737-cb1bc30655d8-000000@eu-west-1.amazonses.com/#t
Let's rewrite that paragraph for clarity.
