Maybe a bit more clear wording around not having internal elements #20

In 1.3 you are talking about the global elements of an object, its structure ("An object has no parts but it may have structure."). For a moment I was puzzled by this line:

until I shortly realized there are no internal elements in the object. Maybe it makes sense to emphasize that internal elements do not exist in 1.3 as well; or just remind us here that the public structure exists?

Sorry If I missed something, for me this was a small glitch in understanding.

I often have the urge to rephrase a sentence for emphasis, but I'm afraid to dilute the meaning. No internal structure means just that: There are no parts inside, so what else can I add?
