...oh dear... It's most inconsiderate of the English language to do all these strange things...
I do understand wanting to make things clearer, and generally approve, although taking out even things like "etc" and "eg" seems a little extreme. Mind you, I often underestimate people's ability to misunderstand things. Also "council does something that actually helps people" doesn't make such a good headline ;)
