We've seen this in the previous step, too.  No comment, no objection.

OK. They want our numbered list to be base-1, first item being labeled with "1.", not "0.". I think the majority of readers would prefer that way while reading the source text (I thought markdown formatters would renumber them anyway, but I probably am mistaken here, like in many other things). Curious that we have "." after these numbers, though.
