This is a great article, Kate.
Editing is a challenging task that does not necessarily yield direct benefits for the editor. It is essentially voluntary work aimed at assisting others, and it should be acknowledged and appreciated as such by both editors and writers.
Sometimes people are resolute about not changing; others become impatient after just a few hours of waiting.
I'm pleased that you identified all the issues and explained your editing process.
You are a hardworking editor. You should have a publication of your own! 😋
