I sent a v3 a few days ago which addressed this, it's at 20180310184545.16950-1-avarab@gmail.com (https://public-inbox.org/git/20180310184545.16950-1-avarab@gmail.com/) but I see that I screwd up the In-Reply-To (I still don't have this fully automated) so that wasn't part of this thread, sorry.

That changes this wording, among other fixes (noted in the tbdiff).
