Thanks; all looked sensible changes, except for 7/10 which I somehow find the original is more readable than the new text, partly because the sentences are shorter but more importantly because the two sentences make two separate assertions (the first is about what "one-shot" pull means, the second is about why automatic tag following is not desired in that situation).
