Comment (by marybaum):

 Have no fear! I won't be running this copy near any sort of linting! This
 is advertising, not editorial, ui or software. Read it out loud and see if
 you can catch the cadences -- there are places where the text repeats
 itself for effect, as you might see in poetry or music.

 The paragraph breaks are intentional -- I break rules in this kind of
 copy. Those are not mistakes. They're decisions.

 Remember that my degree is in Make it look intentional.

 release day :)

 5.4 about page screen as it could help to copy review what @marybaum
 wrote.
 >
 > Please don't run WPCS linting! 😂 I tried to minimized the amount of
 semantics issues but I didn't run the coding standards tools.

 > I also fixed some typos.
