Three-level editorial review per Gopen's Sense of Structure and Heilmeier alignment:
TACTICAL (sentence-level):
- Broke up overly long sentences for clarity
- Positioned known information before new (topic-stress)
- Converted passive constructions to active where appropriate
- Clarified logical relationships with shorter, crisper sentences
- Improved verb choice and sentence flow
OPERATIONAL (paragraph-level):
- Added bridging sentences to improve flow between ideas
- Strengthened transitions between subsections
- Improved coherence within sections
- Clarified argument structure in key passages
STRATEGIC (document-level):
- Verified Heilmeier question alignment in each section
- Improved section summaries to reinforce answers
- Strengthened linkages between sections
- Ensured consistent narrative thread throughout
Focus: Changes that genuinely improve clarity and impact, not nitpicky edits.
