It will be something I'll eventually have to deal with.  Translating, is
nice work, but while trying to make it all Greek, I'm bound to stumble upon
those chapters, and do something about it.  This is in fact something I
suggest all our translators do.  When the original text you're trying to
translate seems unclear, confusing, has errors, typographical mistakes, or
other things you think could be improved, then please file a PR.  As an
extra bonus task, translators with commit bits, can make the changes as
they go through the text.  This is what had me working on FreeBSD docs in
the first place.  This is what drives my work until today.
