Max, not sure what kind of reviews you're seeking since copy-editing hasn't been completed yet, but also found this phrase a little clunky and hard to understand..
"the expert guided, relevant predictors that we collected are not in a form which models can adequately uncover the essential predictive information for the response"
How does this sound instead:
Despite our attempts to follow these good practices, we are sometimes frustrated to find that the best models have less-than-anticipated, below useful predictive performance. This lack of performance may be due to a simple to explain, but difficult to pinpoint, cause: relevant predictors that were collected are represented in a way that models have trouble using them to achieve good performance.
I'd take out the them (I hope I'm not being pedantic).

Hi Max, let me know if you think I should open up a new issue for each typo/sentence issue, but that might get excessive. Here's another:
From 1.1 introduction, a simple example:
A more complex model would do a better job at capturing the data patterns but would be much more less interpretable.
Believe you just meant less.
Thanks. I suggest making a different issue per chapter.
These are fixed in the sources. Thanks.
from preface: believe effectively should be effective here.
