 Besides providing common utilities and data structures, `agda-stdlib` is especially necessary compared to standard libraries for traditional languages for two reasons.
 
-First, Agda is a small, powerful language that omits concepts usually built-in to a language (e.g. numbers, strings).
+First, Agda is a small, powerful language that omits concepts usually built-in to a language (e.g., numbers, strings).
 This reduces compiler complexity, but leaves `agda-stdlib` to define them.
 
 Second, functions in `agda-stdlib` come with correctness proofs - these require substantial work that should not fall to users.

 The library has had a synergistic relationship with Agda itself, both testing and motivating new language features.
 For example, since Agda supports many incompatible language extensions, `agda-stdlib` is structured modularly to remain compatible with different combinations of extensions.
-Each module requests only the minimal expressive power it needs and to facilitate this Agda now categorises extensions as "infective" (affecting all import*ing* modules), "coinfective" (affecting all import*ed* modules) or "neither".

 The library has also served as a test bed for alternative approaches to defining co-inductive data types in Agda.

 In contrast to the type-class mechanisms often used by other functional languages, `agda-stdlib` primarily supports polymorphism [@ivardeBruin2023] via extensive use of parametrised modules.
 This allows users to specify instantiations of abstract parameters for whole modules in a single location, reducing the need for instance search.
-A drawback is imports must be qualified when code is instantiated multiple times in the same scope.

 Parameterised modules are also used to safely and scalably embed non-constructive mathematics into a constructive setting.
