Ideally, everything in the list should be the same structure and also grammatically correct. Unfortunately, this one is neither. It starts with a phrase (like the previous items in the list) and then has a full sentence bolted onto it with a comma-splice.
I'm inclined to leave it for another round of fixing later. This PR is all tiny changes that I think should be uncontroversial. Once I start rewording things, moving stuff around, and adding parentheses or whatever, there may be more bike-shedding (which is fine, but I'd like to keep that separate from the more obvious stuff that can/should land quickly).

@Trott As an aside, this PR is showing 0 commits and 0 file changed, probably because it was closed before GitHub could update status. There's a note about it at the end of https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/doc/guides/collaborator-guide.md#technical-howto. |
Ah, thanks for calling my attention to that! I always push to master before pushing to my branch. Hopefully my muscle-memory won't get in the way of me reversing that process. (Maybe it's time for me to write a script.) |
