A agree that it is no technical report or well researched article but an opinion/idea post containing more open than closed ends but this doesn't appear to a requirement for Main posts by itself. I thought I made into a consistent well-linked whole (more so than is usual in a Discussion post suggesting an idea) so I'm really unclear what kind of editing might be needed. Could you give actionable feedback?

EDIT: Nonetheless I assume you know what you say so I moved it to Discussion.

I would run this post (and future posts) past an editor/proofreader who is strongly familiar with the English language prior to posting.

Thank you. I didn't expect that. The feedback on this I got earlier wouldn't have suggested it.

I agree that it would be improved by editing by, or based on feedback from, someone with stronger English writing skills, I didn't really mind it that much myself.
