on Reference http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/displaying-pitches#automatic-accidentals under the "modern" style, it would be clearer if the sentence "The modernrule prints the same accidentals as default, with two exceptions..." were amended to "Other than this, the modern rule prints the same accidentals as default, with two further exceptions...", or otherwise rewritten, as the sentence before it has been added explaining that this style also prints fewer natural signs.
