Scott helpfully reminds us of the differences between technical purity, semantics, and what actually matters to users in the context of — yes, really — paragraphs:

He spent 37 days in jail while held on a $2 million bond
— an amount the retired police officer could not afford.
It’s the sort of treatment one expects for accused murderers and thieves.
But Larry’s only “crime”?
In the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, he posted a meme on Facebook
quoting President Trump’s remarks about a different …
