Is the amount of text appropriate? Could it be said more concisely? Would it benefit from additional text?
No way too much text was there. It can definitely be said much more concisely in a much stronger and precise way. I don’t think that it would benefit from additional text, because there is too much text that needs to be said much more precisely.
