From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schinde...@gmx.de>

The original phrasing of this paragraph made at least one person stumble
over the word "from" (thinking that it was a typo and "from" was
intended), and other readers chimed in, agreeing that it was confusing:

Let's rewrite that paragraph for clarity.
