Thanks for letting me know. I was in a weird, restless mood yesterday and just rushed through it, I guess. The primary source for all of this actually has a lot of concrete examples, but I went with just one or two and a couple of high-level comments. Maybe I can salvage the post by including more direct quotes of concrete analysis and beefing up the 'specific recommendations' section?

"Rewrite" more than "salvage" since I'd also delete a lot of the abstractions, but yes, and meanwhile I'd again recommend retracting the post while working on it (save back in your Drafts folder).

Substantial rewrite, complete. Thanks for advising me rather than downvoting and moving on, I think it's a better piece now.
