Cutting content to get to 4000 words (or less!)

[moorepants]

@jtheinen and @brocksam, how would you all like to manage my changes?

There are going to be some drastic cuts and rewordings. Either I can just have at it and you all merge this PR in whole. Or I can work in more section by section basis. If you don't mind me making major edits, I can just run through the whole paper and we just accept it. That would be easiest. But if you want to review my work, then I can make it reviewable.

[jtheinen]

I don't mind you making major edits, If you prefer to run through the whole paper that is fine by me. I can review the whole thing, or I can review the pull request as you work on it.

PS I just marked the pull request ready for review but was not intending on doing so, I don't know how to undo it:)

[brocksam]

I'm happy with major changes too.

Does this mean this needs converting back to draft?

[moorepants]

Ok. I'll take a full pass on the paper. I'll see if I can get through it this week.

[brocksam]

Jan and I are meeting tomorrow. We'll update afterwards.

Let's merge this so we can more fluidly work on it.

[brocksam]

Once "ready for review", do you want this reviewed? Or shall we just merge so that others can make targeted edits as the review? I vote the latter.

[moorepants]

Let's just merge we have to edit the paper in the end, so it will be "reviewed".

[moorepants]

Merging.
